    Exactly,

    I want to do something like google chrome where every tab is a different process.

    According to what you said I can do that on Windows and Unix even though I have to use platform specific Qt components. I assume it also works on MAC OS X ?

    The problem with ActiveQt is the fact that my application cannot be GPL anymore, since it's using a non GPL feature, am I right ?

    But Google Chrome doesn't use separate processes, does it?

    If you use ActiveQt, the application can't be GPL.

    Stupid idea. Working around broken code by breaking it even more...

    They do that to prevent everything from crashing when one tab crashes.
    Even though they could achieve the same thing by coding "secured" threads.

    The question is why would a tab crash... (if not because of a broken browser/plugin code).
