I got tipped off to slimjet, a chrome variant with the google spying
removed.

It allows me to have multiple "people" loaded at once in separate windows,
which is comparable to running simultaneous copies of firefox under
different profiles.

It seems to do much, much better at keeping hogs under control (such as
multiple gmail accounts).

In spite of it's docs and preferences, though, it does not seem to be
capable of using or storing OSX Keychain entries--and there's no way I'm
storing my passwords with google!

I use different browsers for different things. I opened the link with a 
browser that has everything turned off. No javascript, no cookies, no 
images. Plus the link was posted to a trustworthy site in the first place 
so I felt fairly safe. It didn't arrive in email.

I use both Firefox and Thunderbird and have reconfigured both.

Thanks for the alert.
The Punycode Alert extension for Chrome also catches these. Or warns 
you, at any rate.
