Hyperlink does not return to form

I created a hyperlink field and placed it on a form. When I click on the field in the form it goes to the correct web address but when the web page is closed the form does not automatically reappear. I have to click on the minimized form to get back to form. How can I make the form view return automatically when web page is closed?
 
The only way that I am aware of is just click the back button instead of closing the browser. I have been trying to find a solution to this for a while, this and a few other browser problems I have from Access.

If that is the only instance of the browser open at the time, could you not look for the executable (iexplore.exe) and do nothing while it's there and once it's gone, normalfocus the original form?

Just brainstorming really, not a solution.
