    Does Anybady know how to start IExplore in _seperate_ process on Win XP ?? When I start IExplore.exe on W2000 e.g 5 times i get 5 distinct processes. On XP Zero, and moreover all the five windows are running as threads in explorer.exe process. Why do I want distinct process ? - better fault tolerance (one process crash doesn't involve the others) - better priority management ( when some browser window loads an ActiveX or java that extensively computes sth. (or at least uses a lot of CPU) I can decrease priority of the corresponding process , and the other windows work fine. Now, under XP I cannot of cource set priority per thread (from Task manager, and the only thing I can do then is to kill explorer.exe process... what is not a good solution. So the question Is: How to start IExplore under Win XP in _distinct_ process. (E.g Let every browser have it's own process) Thanx for answer Michal Januszczyk

      I think this did it for me. Open up My Computer, click Tools then choose Folder Options, on the view tab enable "launch folder windows in a separate process". James Simplicity Rules!
