True, but then there is no setting to keep the browser from opening a new
window, there is a setting to keep outlook from doing this and this gets
around that setting.

   I know the term.  Nothing here you can't also trick someone unsuspecting
when opening in a new window.

  Do you know the term Phishing, I think that's what the concern is with this.
  It's not that the external references are loaded, it's that they can appear
to
  be loaded from one place while in fact they are coming from another. It's
very
  similar to the MS04-004 bug for incorrect parsing of URLs.
