When you go to exit the explorer, if you have multiple tabs open; it asks if you want to close all tabs or cancel. Then there's a little tab that says show options. If you show the options, you have the option to open all those same pages the next time you open explorer. This is great when you check the same pages regularly, like PMS forums, your Myspace, or whatever you look at every day.

GET FIREFOX
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

It remembers all the last tabs you had open and just auto restores them as well.

I used Firefox briefly when it first came out several years ago. I can't remember what I didn't like about it, but maybe it is better now?

I find the spell check still a little wacky. You misspell a word by only a letter or two and it'll give you suggestions that are not even in the same ballpark sometimes. However type the exact same thing into a word processor or even google and it'll give you the correct spelling of the word right away. It's still pretty useful though.

OK..... so I downloaded Mozilla. It does seem to be smoother than it was years ago. However, I can't seem to find a way to have it re-open the tabs that were last open. There are some cool add-ons though.

They reopen when your browser crashes or you force it to close by ending the process in the task manager. At least that's how it works by default.

ohhhhh.... Well IE7 will reopen them the next time I open explorer if I tell it to remember them before I close it.

I like it. It doesn't always tell me how to spell a word, but at least it tells me I spelled it wrong. :P

Yeah spellcheck is kinda wack. And there is a mod that lets you set predefined tabs. Or an option. Cant remember.

I use opera because no matter what it will keep your last pages open, so you can shut down the computer and turn it back on later and theres your pages already in the tabs, also it has a new thing called speed dial where you can input 9 of your favorite sites and by clicking the square they are in you can visit em whenever.

Cool, thanks for the tip - I never noticed that one. I'm a fan of ie7 as well.. never caught on with the firefox craze though I use it frequently when doing web development.

I'm curious to see how the safari beta shapes up going into RC status. All the mac heads rave about it and are more passionate than any firefox fan I've run into.
