I've find where is the problem of "open favorites links in tabs".
If I open any .url file from anywhere alse, not from Favorites it open in new tabs of IE7. Why WinXP open links from Favorites folder in new windows of IE7? I don't know.

I think BB can open .url files using ShellExecute() for link from this files. May be some plugin do it?

And if I use Run...
enter [link] url
it always open links in new tabs of IE7, not in new windows.

gv: Yes, IE7 configured to open external links in tabs, but .url files from Favorites menu open in new windows. :(

Tools -> Options -> General -> Tabs -> Settings

I think you want to configure the tabbed browsing settings in IE7.

I add to menu my Favorites. I use IE7 for web browsing. If I click the link from my favorites folder then bbLean open it in new window of IE7 but can't open new tab in already opened IE7 window. How can I configure bbLean to open links in new tabs but not in new windows?

A New Blackbox for Windows mod

We hail yet another Blackbox for Windows clone/build/branch – must be the 8th or 9th so far. Built by unkamunka, BB4Win Mod has a new bbcore philosophy and some new interesting features, some of them in the eye candy department, since it boasts no less than 12 new style syntax options – though at least two of them (splitvertical and mirrorhorizontal) we have already seen in noccy/elite force builds. Recently, unkamunka updated RC1, replacing it with RC2.
More specifically, this version (BB4Win Mod 1.18 RC2) includes:
• Enabled 12 multi-colour gradients
• Upgraded image rendering (including 24-bit & 32-bit colour options)
• Processes menu - including Kill menu (credits to Alex3D & nocd5)
• Settings menu rationalised: merger of "Blackbox menu" with Configuration menu
• Settings Menu access to edit all local plugin.rcs & submenus
• Alpha values now configurable on a 1-8 scale
• Styling option: Menu.Title.FontHeight <2 removes titles
• Styling option: Enabled wildcard parsing for textures
• UserAppData & RunOnceEx support reinstated
• Removed default desktop clicks
• Bugfixes & minor tweaks

• available range of mouse-clicks expanded (code also streamlined)
• menu separators - backwards compatible (& buttonPressed style re)introduced
• locking of workspace edges made fully optional
• RC file syntax simplified & Bro@ms menu introduced
• bb icon (& name of bb version) added to WindowLabel
• non-functioning compatibility code removed & other tweaks
Plus, the new BBLeanBar uses menu bullets in the place of old-fashioned arrows. Get it from [link]
