Thanks, William > 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. PCSOFT mailing list is brought to you by: The NOSPIN Group, Inc. http://nospin.com - http://nospin.org
