2 VPN connections at once (Different browsers)

Does anyone know if it's possible to set up OpenVPN to allow me to connect to 2 different IP's at the same time on the same computer in 2 different browsers?
When I want to change IP I need to disconnect/re-connect but it would be nice to connect to multiple VPN's/IP's at once.

Hi maikcat, by browsers I mean Opera, Internet Explorer & Firefox Etc.
For example is it possible to connect to VPN1 through Firefox whilst at the same time connect to VPN2 through Internet Explorer?
Thanks

hi there,
openvpn need openvpn software to run..
if you noticed it creates a tap network adapter (windows) during setup..
AFAIK there is no browser plug in to do this..
ps:openvpn is *NOT* ssl based vpn like some hardware based firewalls have (watchguard,juniper etc)
well it is ssl based but is not for use like the other ones.
cheers,
michael.
