Assuming you are on a Windows computer, right click the shortcut you use to start SL.

This will bring up a menu with an option Properties, probably at the bottom of the menu.

Select Properties.

This will bring up a dialog with several fields, one of which is Target.

Add -multiple to the end of the the Target field.

On a standard installation of SL this should look like:

"C:\Program Files\SecondLife\SecondLife.exe" -multiple

Note that the -multiple goes outside of the quotation marks that enclose the path to the SL exe file.
