A missing IE7 feature
Published October 8th, 2006 in All Categories, Internet Explorer, Internet Explorer 7
Browsers crash occasionally. That’s a fact of computing life. If you have a whole bunch of tabs 
open, it’s a pain to try to recover the group you were working with.
You can install Firefox extensions that can handle auto-reopening tabs after a crash, and this feature (called Session Restore) is going to be included as a standard option in Firefox 2.
IE7, alas, has no such feature. If you choose to close IE7, you can click a checkbox to reopen those tabs the next time you open IE. So why can’t the error-handling code that triggers this dialog box do the same thing? Ed Bott’s Windows Expertise | A missing IE7 feature
