For Safari users Saft does this and more.

Firefox is really turning into a great browser but I only use it for a few things like reviewing and geek work.

One of my favorite Firefox features is having multiple user profiles. I have one for reviewing that doesn't block popups and asks before accepting cookies. Then I have another one that blocks popups and accepts all cookies without asking.

Not sure if you can do this on other OSs but under OSX you can have more then one copy of Firefox running at the same time with different settings for each copy.

I'm still running nice and stable on 1.5...with developer extensions and session saver. Think I'll wait til the new one gets shaken out a bit before upgrading.

That said, about the only time I open IE anymore is to test my own pages. Other than that, it's FF all the way

No, there's at least three of us!

I've owned one since they came out...

Make that at least four. Also owned one since the 1984 commercial. (By 1988 I even had a DynaMac--it was an SE/30 in a black portable shell). I've always had several Macs around since then, and it's my personal/portable computer of choice.

Saft is not free... I tried running both of them and the new beta version crashed. I had to delete the old one and haven't had a single crash yet due to well known memory leaks in the past.
