I recently upgraded from Windows 95 with IE4 to Windows 98 SE and IE5.  I
am not using Active Desktop but the two features you have mentioned above
appear to be available.  I'm using the launch bar.  The single-click open
feature appears to be available but I have it disabled and have not tried
to use it.  It looks as though you would not have any problem simply
upgrading.
