Yes.  I've seen this with Royal Mail's Smartstamp where it
was necessary to hold down the shift key in order click on
an item.

It's to do with triggering ActiveX controls.  It's probably
safer to put up with it, rather than risk accidentally
triggering an unwanted ActiveX control.

Subject: [access-uk] curious problem in IE6

Hi, I've had this problem for a couple of weeks and have no
idea what is 
causing it. I'm not sure if the setting to fix it is in IE6,
WE6, Nod32, 
Look&Stop or even somewhere else.

If I click on a link to listen to a program on the BBC site
instead of the 
player popping up I get a double clunk sound. If I press
shift enter the 
player pops up.

The same thing happens on any sites where clicking on a link
results in a 
separate page popping up. I'm pritty sure I didn't make any
changes to my 
system before this started and it hasn't always happened.

I've tried disabling IE's popup blocker as well as adding
the BBC site to 
its list of allowed web sites.
Thanks for any help
Yusuf
