Windows 7 Tip: 
If you receive a link in a email message and you don’t want to open it in your web browser The ThunderBrowse Thunderbird extension allows you to view it in Thunderbird. The ThunderBrowse Thunderbird extension adds a URL Bar to the Thunderbird interface, thus allowing you to be able to view websites without having to open browsers.
Easy to use and it’s unobtrusive because it doesn’t require you to add any more buttons to your toolbar, as it adds to the message preview pane, without taking up much space. ThunderBrowse also comes with commands to make ThunderBrowsing easier!
