Favorites/bookmarks pick browser

[dpresler]

Is there any software available that will let me assign browsers (e.g.,
IE or Firefox) to my favorites/bookmarks? I frequent several sites
that will not work with the wrong browser (some require IE, others
require a Mozilla-based browser). I'd like to have the appropriate
browser come up when I select the link from my Start menu Favorites.

Jetlinks can do that from within the program (not from the Start menu) -
choices offered are IE, Netscape and Opera - the problem is the app's
*OLD* - dunno if all the paths still work - I suspect there may be a way
to lie to it (fake the paths) and make it work with Mozilla, Firefox
etc. work - haven't figured it out yet. . .

There is a Firefox extention called "IE Tab", allowing you to open IE
from within Firefox.

what a great concept!

Not from the start menu, but .....

URL Organizer, and it payware successor Bookmark Buddy allow you to
define which browser opens whatever url. You assign a 'default' browser
for all url's, a 'specified' browser for specific url's, or right click
any url and choose any browser for that session.

I have 1983 url's, 7 of which automatically open in IE, 831
automatically open in Opera, 78 automatically open in Firefox, and the
balance default to Maxthon.

My c:\windows\favourites has just 1 entry .... windows update.
