All you have to do is browse to the page you want to set as the home page for the first tab then open another tab and browse to the page you want to set as the home page for that tab.

Repeat till you have set all the tabs you want then click on Tools, then Options and click Use Current Page next to where it says Home Page.

Now when you open up FireFox it will open up all the tabs you set to the pages you picked.

You can do the same thing using Internet Explorer 7 by setting the tabs and clicking on Tools, Internet Options and clicking Use Current in the Home Page section.

By the look of it, Safari has the "use current page" setting too. Next time I restart I will test this out :)

Let us know if it works out.
It may work for other browsers also, if it does work and we can add it to the list, and how it is done with them.

Couldn't get it to work in Safari, tried using the current pages, but it just opened the single page :cry:

how about this put a folder on the bookmark bar and add your most frequently visited sites in the folder you can then have Safari open all of those sites in tabs.To do so do the following:

1) Click on the little book in the left corner of the bookmark bar.
2) Select "Bookmark Bar" in your selection.
3) Check the box in the column "Auto-Click" for each folder you would like to open all its containing links on a single left click.
