Default Site sponors dont open in new window
Just a small thing, if I click on a site sponsor it opens in the FF.au window, can it be changed so that a new window opens, i know I can right click and say open in new window, but would be nice just to click and a new window pop up, just my thoughts :

How slack are you!

Get firefox and use the 'middle button opens in new tab' feature....best feature in a browser ever!

True, firefox is definately better then cruddy old IE, however it would be much more professional if the site sponsor links opened in a new link by default, no matter which browser was being used and without having to think about it.

I think it's a good idea.

Maybe they don't want us to be distracted by the forums when visiting a sponsor site!

Geez! Thanks heaps for that mate!!!

But yes, even left clicking on the sponsors should open up the link in a new window. its something that should only take 5minutes to change and update.

You can always hold down shift+click, in IE to open a new window. But yeah, would be easier/nicer.
