Multiple windows / Multiple programs

[D.slert]

I am not sure that you can actually do that, but you can place the icons for  those programs on in your quick start menu are place them on the Windows tool bar.  Also consider how many programs you have launched at startup.  Do you leave your computer on all the time?  How fast is your processer and how much ram do you have running.  Also have you checked the stats of background programs running on your system?  Is your complaint that to lauch all the programs takes too long?  Because it shouldnt.

I am a huge ebayer myself and I use all the same programs as you do save for IE, I  prefer mozilla.  I have no problem launching each of these programs one after the other.
