    Thanks Karla. :)
    Hey Craig - just an update, my 1st crack at the .ins file was not successful. I will revisit it when I put my coding helmet back on.

    Craig I figured it out!  :)

    http://www.3reef.com/add_sidebar_in_ie.ins

    Click on this link and save to your desktop.

    Double click to run.

    Click 'ok' until it's done. Ignore the modem stuff or whatever it throws at you - Just click 'ok' a few times. All it will do is install the sidebar in your IE browser.

    It will say it choked at the end, but ... DON'T WORRY. It worked.

    When it's done, open a browser and do 'control - e' or View/Explorer Bar/Search in your browser.

    You should see it. Anytime you want it.

    ^^^ Bump.

    ANyone try this install file yet?

    Worked on mine from work, you don't even have to save it to your desktop, you can just open it to run it and then click ok a few times. (Then do 'control e')


    Let me know!

    Just did it. Works great. Just cancel when the internet settings window opens and ok ok ok and Ctrl e and done.

    Very cool but how come when I mark all read and close IE then log back on some of the treads are unread even though there is no new posts?
