I should have mentioned the extension "Open With". As long as your main browser supports something like it, you can easily open any page that gives you problems in another program from a menu. 2 clicks. Doesn't get much easier. You aren't limited to opening the page in a browser either. You can open it in a script. The url will be the argument. From there, you can pretty much do anything you can imagine with it. For example, it could match the url against patterns & do one thing it if is a chron page & something else if it is your webmail provider. For example, you could open it in a different browser, download it with something like wget, or automatically post a smartass reply in a forum. It can branch on the time of day or what is in your clipboard. If your browser doesn't support "Open Wth" or some equivalent, you can get the Openbox window manager to do pretty much the same thing, although it is more work. I imagine some other window managers have similar functionality, particulary any of the *box family. Openbox is the default in Lubuntu & LXDE desktops. (There is also an LXDE-qt I believe, which is different.) It would surprise me if similar tools don't exist in the Windows ecosystem.
