IE 8 Open In New Tab
IE 8 Right-Click on a URL Open In New Tab does not, it opens a new browser.
Not what I want. Where do I change this specifically. I looked in Internet options but do not see anything to do this. Probably do not know the terminology. I need to use IE because at the WiFi hotspot it is the only browser that seamlessly allows me to log in. Others put up stupid seurity crap that I have to navigate. I've known this hotspot for years so I am not worried. Other hotspots work with other more secure browsers. So no lectures please. TIA

If right-clicking immediately open a new window, it means the the site's JavaScript code changes the right mouse button functionality.

IE 8 Open In New Tab
But this happens on all links I use.
I went into Add-Ons and Disabled both Java but that did not stop the opening of a new window. How do I stop it?

Where is it I go to turn off ?
