How to get to the top level windows that is not mainwindow

How can I access the windows that are not the current mainwindow. For
instance with Internet Explorer (iexplore) one can create several
browser windows within the same "instance" of iexplore.

I can for get the window title of the main window (with MainWindowTitle
property), but I have not managed to get the window title for any of
the other windows of that iexplore instance. I have noticed that I can
change what window is classified as the mainWindow by giving another
iexplore window focus (by activating it with the mouse). Maybe this
could be a hint on how to do what I want. Maybe I could iterate through
the collection of iexplore windows and pick the information I want from
them all. But how do I access such a collection, there should be one.

In windows task manager they get window names for all these windows of
iexplorer in the "Applications tab", so it can be done. Maybe it is
just not available in the dotnet API?
