RE: A few suggestions and feature requests for Internet Explorer 7

The one option that I would really like to see Microsoft implement is an
option to save open tabs and reopen them automatically after IE restarts like
Firefox does. This saves me so much time in the morning when I startup my
work computer.

IE does have that option.
When you get the small window asking you if you want to close all tabs
click on "show options".

If these are the same sites every day, then just set them all as your Home
pages.
