How to make a website shortcut open to a different browser other than the default browser?

Create a shortcut and then in the command for the shortcut put the path to the alternate browser and then the URL of the page you want it to open, inside double-quotes.

For instance:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\ "http://www.anything.com/"

There is an extension for Firefox called IE Tab which can be set to open certain websites in an IE tab within Firefox. It's pretty useful for this exact purpose.
