Getting a Bookmark/URL/Address To Open With Embedded IE Object in FF (IE Tab)

=== BACKGROUND/COMMENT/OPINION/RANT

Like most users (I hope), I have the extension/add-on IE Tab in FF when I
am forced to use it for when a thoroughly incompetent website developer has
built the site rich in IE-runnable scripts and not conforming really at all
to web document preparation standards.

In general, I will refuse even to patronize websites that tailor their site
only to IE, but sometimes I don't have a choice, such as when it is run by
a new employer (probably with an IT department that doesn't take
suggestions from "civilians" about how to run its website).


======= THE QUESTION ======

How can set a bookmark or URL so that it always instructs FF to open that
URL with an embedded IE browser object inside FF?


=== ADDITIONAL PROBABLY UNNECESSARY COMMENT

I usually log in, then realize I forgot to press the FF->IE icon in the
lower right of the status bar, and must login again.

Check the IE Tab options, especially the "site filters". simply add the
URL to the list and it will always open in the embedded IE.
