Since we're going the whole nine yards here, let's toss in the following
as well:
1. This will of course give a different reading in the status bar
2. More importantly it will bypass the so-called 'popup blocker' in IE XP
SP2
It's a hand-made Excel spreadsheet using OWC11 for Office 2003. One might
suspect that the older versions will function the same.

Perhaps someone with more knowledge can get it to automate:
'foo.ActiveCell.openHyperlink
'foo.Worksheets(1).Hyperlinks(1).Follow
Then you're back in the popup business.
