Optool is a free (well, almost - see the download section!) Windows utility
for nearly all browsers that in a snap allows you to view the same web page
in other browsers installed on your system. No need for that tiresome
cutting and pasting url's anymore - just press your favorite hotkey or use
the new and unique long right click feature.


Features:
- Supports Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer (even
multiple installations), Netcaptor, Netscape
- You can add custom browsers if that is not enough!
- Invoke Optool by customizable hotkey, tray icon or long right clicks
- Quickly switch between your two favorite browsers instead of
showing the menu
- Optionally reponds on url's copied to the clipboard. Nice for url's
in text documents
- Navigate the browser to parent, root or domain root URL
- Resize current window to any predefined size, including
custom sizes
- Close all browsers, all other browsers or just browser windows
related to the one you're working with.
- Create internet shortcuts on the desktop, favorites folder or
where ever you like
- Good stuff often comes in small packages - Optool is only 112 k!
- Optool will run on any Windows 32 bit system (95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, XP)



New stuff in 2.1:
- Long right clicks
- Go to domain root
- Custom window sizes for resizing windows
- Close all other browsers
- Close original browser
- Make target browser same size and position as original
- More compact and logical menu structure
- Optionally hide disabled menu items

Improvements and bug fixes:
- Algorithm for recognizing urls improved
- Better clipboard handling
- The popup menu can always be accessed
- Lots of other bug fixes, improvements and optimizations

Thanks for the update CoMa, I've been using version 1.2 for quite some time and
find it invaluable, since I still use Netscape Messenger 4.79 for my mail and
use Opt Tool to open links in Firefox.

I've heard that the government wants to put a tax on the mathematically
ignorant. Funny, I thought that's what the lottery was!

Anyone else having a problem with this new version? It does not want to run on my
Win98SE system. Continue to get the "performed an illegal operation" message.
Got rid of it and went back to the 1.2beta version (no trouble with this version at
all)

I will take a look at it.

If you would like to test it, please send me a mail :-)

I too had the same problem and so I removed it.Unfortunately I can't find the older
version to try.
