Dual Monitor Tricks

So my system is now a dual monitor one, with the Windows desktop extended across them both. I have a few things I'd like to know.

1. Is there a way to tell Internet Explorer to maximize in eighter of the monitors in the shortcut. So I could have one Icon for IE Left Monitor, and one for IE right monitor. Right now it starts in the monitor where it was last.

2. Is there anyway of extending the taskbar across the second monitor too?

Well these are the ones I can think of right now, but anyone with Dual Monitor questions or tips and tricks is free to post them here.

Ok here is one trick. UltraMon. It's a software that extends Windows' dual monitor abilities. You can for example choose different Wallpapers for each monitor or have one streched across both/all. It also gives you a taskbar on the second/other monitor(s).

Free Trial Available and also a Developer's Edition to help you bring Dual Monitor capabilities to your apps.
