I was going to create something to allow this to work as an IE explorer • bar
too, but after reading the instructions on how to create one I've decided
that it's just too much effort - maybe in IE7 MS will pick up on this idea
from Mozilla and make it easy to create an explorer bar instead of • requiring
a computer science degree! If anyone is interested at having a shot at • this
take a look at

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/browser/ext/tuto
rials/explorer.asp  - and then shake your head in disbelief at how • difficult
MS can make just adding something to IE.

Its not a profesional job but I replaced the Search bar (which I never used)
with the Lugnet Ticker.  I just went into the registry and did some minor
hacking and replaced the default search page/bar addresses in a few places.
I then made a .reg file that makes all the changes, and another that
restores the default search settings. Works great now and looks almost
identical to the Netscape version.

I have Win ME w/ IE6 if you're curious.
