Do you hate browser tabs?
Just get rid of them! In Internet Explorer 7 go to:
Tools/Internet Options/Tabs/Settings/
and uncheck:
[ ] Enable Tabbed Browsing
Do you hate when a browser window gets recycled (e. g. if you click on a web shortcut)?
Just disable it! Go to:
Tools/Internet Options/Advanced/Browsing/
and uncheck:
[ ] Reuse windows for launching shortcuts
PS I'm a fan of Virtual Desktops, which are superior to Tabs. Give it a try, you won't regret!
