how to? shortcut on desktop to open URL in NEW window

[brotherS]

How can I place a shortcut to an URL on the desktop that will always open a NEW browser window instead of opening the page in an existing one?

Does anyone know?

on a web page you would add:
location="top" to the href, but i'm not sure you can do that in a shortcut.

another good solution would be that you could make your shortcut to a tiny .js javascript file that just opened a web page on a new page.  that should work well.

Thanks mouser, I found an even better way - or two, to be exact

First I wrote a little AutoHotkey script to do what I need (pressing some keys is better than grabbing the mouse anyway ), then I thought about it again and put the link to the IE exe together with the URL in Logitech's iTouch config. Just specifying the URL there sometimes didn't work, this now looks promising!

Thanks for the ideas!
