cant use more than one desktop shortcut

I have a new problem, I have some shortcuts I like to use on my desktop to get to website faster, but when i try to open more than one, it closes to 1st one. I can not figure it out. So for example, I have yahoo open and i want to open my ebay shortcut off my desktop, it will close the yahoo one and open the ebay one. Please help me, this is annoying, I am running IE 6.0

I think you may have to put up with this minor issue due to the way IE has been designed.

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful,

If I'm right, you can right-click on the website link and do "Open in new window".
