This you gotta have a look at.

www.netcaptor.com (http://www.netcaptor.com)

It took me all of five minutes to decide to add this to my taskbar - the ability to browse sites using a single window, as well as the ability to open a number of sites on startup or by choosing a "captorgroup" made this absolutely indispensible - yet it's still IE, more or less.

This is the single most useful Internet tool I have ever seen to date.

That sounds VERY VERY cool! Maybe Mozilla makers will get a clue?

PS: Just do me a favor, don't use the word "awesome" and the acronym "IE" in the same sentance. :P

Ok, I like the idea and most of the implementation, but I do **NOT** like that ad...[nbsp][nbsp]Oh well.[nbsp][nbsp]*L*

Well, I don't like the ad either, but it doesn't really get in my way.[nbsp][nbsp]Besides which it's only like $19 or so to get the registered version, and the functionality has proven quite useful.

There are some quirks, though - my Gator form-filler doesn't recognize it, and it's a bit too easy to close everything when you were only trying to close one window.[nbsp][nbsp]Still, it keeps everything organized, and surprisingly enough I don't have any hangs with it yet (my IE hangs on me at least once a day).
