Take a serious look at Netcaptor (Uses IE 5 or 6)! Easy way to manage multiple windows and helps with popup ads!

This it?

NetCaptor
... Stop Browsing the Old Way - Get NetCaptor! New to NetCaptor? Take a tour. Not browsing
with tabs? Try NetCaptor and you'll never browse the old way again! ...
Description: Internet Browser with integrated search tool. User's may select and search multiple search engines...

Tabbed browsing in Mozilla and Opera. Additional tabs take up less memory than whole new IE Windows.
And Moz has a lot of great built in stuff, email, HTML editing, Jabber Client, personal profiles, etc.
It's really all I use these days.

Yes!

At the moment with XP Pro and 512 M I have 31 windows open!
So you can load up memory very easily!
May have to restrain yourself as you set it up!

There are features I don't use much , like the captor groups! Have not had much time to experiment with the latest .

Actually I am running the Pro version but not much different from the free version.!

31 windows? I'm impressed- this antique of mine slows noticably with 2, and 3 or 4 makes it crawl...

Another trick:

Put brain in gear before putting keyboard in motion.

Please buy some curtains and quit walking around dressed that way in front of all those windows....its a polital forum not a peep show.
