Try adding target="_blank" to the attachment link.

Thanks Dave I knew the target="_blank" part (although sometimes I use target="new" as well -- never knew if it made much of a difference??). Where am I adding it though? In addpost.php?

You will want to make the changes to showflat and showthreaded.
Find this line:
if ($File) { $File = rawurlencode($File); $postrow[$i]['filelink'] = "<a href="{$config['fileurl']}/$File">{$ubbt_lang['FILE_ATTACH']}</a>"; }
and change it to this:
if ($File) { $File = rawurlencode($File); $postrow[$i]['filelink'] = "<a href="{$config['fileurl']}/$File" target="_blank">{$ubbt_lang['FILE_ATTACH']}</a>"; }
That should do it.
Files that the browser will try to download will first open in a new window to only have it close for the download. (well this is what used to happen when I did simular links)

target="_blank" vs. target="new"
If I recall correctly, "_blank" is the correct attribute value to use in this case. "new" is just a reference to a frame named "new". Unless a frame with that name actually exists, the browser thinks "Hmmmm, I can't find that frame, so I'll just open a blank window."

Ahh! Thank you Dave, that makes sense. I appreciate the clarification.
