    Is there a Windows browser like the Mac browser Stainless (running multiple sessions on the same browser)

    The browser called Stainless lets you run parallel sessions.
    Stainless for OS X

    Considering the fact that the browser you reference hasn't been updated in nearly a year (and their Twitter feed hasn't had anything since October), they must have determined what they were looking to achieve was too difficult.

    You can do this any of the browsers that support a "Private Session", granted it will be a separate window rather than a tab....I do it all of the time...

    For "private session" it's inconvenient in that you have to log in. But for Stainless it saves your log in so that in you can log in to the same site with different usernames on two separate tabs.

    Opera can be set up with separate profiles which might do what you want. I've never tried it myself.

    I doubt that any browser can truly separate profiles/sessions because website put data in areas the browser cannot control.
