IE8 is my browser of choice and therefore the one I use most often. But, there are features of FF or Chrome that I really like.
For example, I really like how in Chrome when you click the 'Create application shortcut..' button, it creates an icon on your desktop that in turn launches a streamlined window of Chrome specific to the site. It doesn't have all the menu items, buttons, etc. I like to re-create that sort of functionality with IE.
So, does anyone know a way to customize IE shortcuts such that when you launch it, it replicates what Chrome does? Even better would be the ability to customize IE shortcuts and have it remember per site. For example, I click on one shortcut and it opens an IE window in full screen, F11 mode. Then, click another shortcut and it opens in a window stripped of all menu items and toolbars...click another shortcut and get a window with only the buttons you specified...you get the idea.
Is this possible? I've been fiddling around a little, but haven't gotten very far! :)
Thanks!
