Hi all,

this is not a real problem but I would like to know if it is possible to add arguments at webpages shortcuts at Win7. My sony vaio has a button I have set up to open my CRM (from a shortcut) but I would like it to open in a new window and, if possible, in a separated instance so I could use that as an "independent" program.

Thanks.

I found that out:

"C:\Program Files\MozillaFirefox\firefox.exe"-new-window http://theweb.com

Opens FF in a new window. What about opening a different instance?

You need a separate profile if you want to open another independent Firefox instance.
Each Firefox instance requires its own profile.

Use the -no-remote command line switch to open another Firefox instance with its own profile and to run different Firefox instances simultaneously.
