Try to find one of each browser class with EnumChildWindows then you save the text(current link) of each one, and send a WM_CLOSE message to the program, if you debug the IE you'll probably see a CALL to the function to open a new window, when you find it, you can call it again and with the new browser class you put the text you got from the one that was opened
