My friend just got a new laptop, so what's the first thing he did? Added functionality in the form of toolbars, of course! Why bother having to navigate to other websites, when everything is just a mouse click away?
And now, here you have it. Internet Explorer with more bling than Tupac on trampoline:

Hah, it's beautiful.
Oh yeah, the next step in fixing up his computer was to format and install XP Pro. This guy is brilliant (dan, say nothing) when it comes to computers, he was just having some fun. |

omg... the worst bar (he hasn't got it) is the blue one, it is sometimes named grllhclcr or something, other times its called "multi book exit" anyway, its hard to get rid of... |

Dam it, i so wanted to. Any how at least he formated windows, now he just has to pop in a linux cd and he is on his way.
On the subject of toolbars, i like the way firefox did the Google sreach bar. You can just add all the difrent sreach engions to the same bar with out using up 1/2 your screen. |

What good is page rank? If you like a page, good. If you don't, ok. Do you need to know what other people think of it? I like the firefox one, though I mainly just use the hyperdictionary thing. For google I'm just so accustomed to opening a new tab and going to google.com |

hah... talk about contrasting, this is what my browser looks like:
I use keyboard shortcuts instead of having all those useless buttons on the screen. |

You know, there is a full-featured "Googlebar" for Firefox if you don't find the included search box powerful enough. |

Amailer's vanity prompts him to check the rank of his own webpage everyday. What would not be a useful tool for u, is a useful tool for him |
