What I want to do:

I usually log in with multiple accounts simultaniously. Say, I have my personal account and my work account and I leave my personal user logged in while I'm working. However I'd like to have my browser window (started from my personal account) available in my work account.

I've heard this is possible in linux somehow, but I could't find a way for windows.

This is called "Multiseat" and there's two kind of solution for this: commercial solutions and "tweaks" explaining how to enable concurrent sessions in Windows 7 ... the tweaks are obviously not guaranteed and possibly illegal with the current Microsoft license. So the best is to look for a commercial one, right?

Check this Wikipedia article to start your research for the best option for you:

Find Internet Explorer in the All Programs menu, hold down the Shift key and right click the IE icon, choose 'Run as different user'

This should allow you to run two seperate instances of IE from the same account. See here for step by step with pics.
