I think the reason that is happening is because you have a <a href> tag and also a onclick event that opens a new window.

You might try just doing something like this:

<A href="#" onMouseOver="window.status='To Close Fullscreen press Alt+F4.';return true" onclick="window.open('http://198.90.24.32/EMEA-NMS/netcool-history/2007-history/<%=File.Name%>','netcool','fullscreen=yes')" ><%=File.Name%></a>

Should work just fine.

BTW it's javascript not java

in your code remove the target=_blank
this is the one which is opening a window when the link is clicked
and the other window is the one which is opened by onclick.

try this...

<A href="http://198.90.24.32/EMEA-NMS/netcool-history/2007-history/<%=File.Name%>" onMouseOver="window.status='To Close Fullscreen press Alt+F4.';return true" onclick="window.open(this.href,'netcool','fullscreen=yes')" ><%=File.Name%></a><br>

use the above soultion or go for the following

onclick="some process; return false;"

in an hyperlink the onclick is the first one to be executed other than opening
the link given in href=""... so after the some process is done we are disabling that event so the link in href will not be executed...

try this...

<A href="http://198.90.24.32/EMEA-NMS/netcool-history/2007-history/<%=File.Name%>" target="_blank" onMouseOver="window.status='To Close Fullscreen press Alt+F4.';return true" onclick="window.open(this.href,'netcool','fullscreen=yes'); return false;" ><%=File.Name%></a><br>
