Setting up multiple windows

This might not be the right place to ask, but I was wondering if there was a way for me to open a list of Web sites in separate windows automatically, such as when I start my computer? I want to open up my personal Web site, along with my online trading sites and support sites when I get into the office each day, and as I'm doing it now, I have to open them up one-by-one, which takes quite a while. If there is an easier way, even a way to click a button to turn all of them on, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
 
This is not quite a one button solution, but it's close. Open IE and
navigate to one of the web pages you would like open. Once there, click on
File and select 'Send' and the 'Send to Desktop'. This will make a desktop
icon that when double clicked will open IE and navigate to the web page. Do
this for the other sites. The problem is that you will have to double click
on each one to get them running. You could write a script to do the same
thing and put it in your Startup folder and this would eliminate the need
for desktop icons/shortcuts but will require writing a script.

You can try Avant. It's an MDI browser. The underlying engine is still IE,
so your security settings for IE will apply to Avant, too. Worth a try in my
opinion :

Have you tried dragging shortcuts for them to Startup?
You would have to uncheck the Advanced option
Reuse windows for launching shortcuts
(Tools, Options, Advanced, R)

If that isn't what you want I would try creating a cmd file
which started the same set of pages. You might need
to use the Start command to make sure they all got
launched in their own windows but I don't think so.
