39401 - [RFE]: prevent multiple browser windows from opening

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 56296

(SeaMonkey :: Preferences, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Chuck R.]

On some sites, all links open a browser window, thus slurping resources and 
clutting my desktop. I would like to have a preference to prevent more than x 
browser windows from opening. Some sites open a banner window when you go to 
their site so I could limit the number of browser windows to 2, allowing for 1 
website window and 1 banner window.

This overlaps somewhat with bug 29346.

Consider this in the future ...

There is now a pref to make links always open in the same window.
