Windows Explorer? Protect a browser window?

Many times when I am on-line I will have 2-5 browser Windows open doing different things. Usually one of those is media (video or audio) like watching MTP or other shows that reply on their own web page.

The problem is that I may get an e-mail (say from Pelican) that someone has replied to a topic of mine and a link is supplied. But if I click that link the browser I am using to stream media gets swapped out for Pelican.

Is there a way to "protect" a page so that it cannot be passively changed like this?

What is your email client? In MS Outhouse, you can specify that URL's are opened in a new window...

Also, it opens the email URL in the last window you were in, so you could click a different window, and then click the URL, so your pr0n viewing is uninterrupted.

I don't use it - is it possible to right-click and "open in new window?"

Nope I don't have that option on right-click. I'll go through the settings/options and see what I can find. Thanks.
