Problem with IE and shellexecute.

Hi!

This one is a real problem. From my App i run a shellexecute that will
execute a webadress. Instantly when the webpage is launched i run a SW_HIDE
on it. From my app the user can whenever he wants to view the webbpage that
is hidden.

Now to the problem.

When the users clicks a link of one other webpage that is called through the
"_blank" attribut, "my webpage" (that is hidden) will disappear completely.

I have only tried to do a shellexecute when IE is the default webbrowser.

Now, how can i avoid this from beeing happened? can i do something with "my
webpage" window to fool IE that it is not your window but mine?

Any help appreciated!
Frankie
