| Summary |
The "favourites" menu within Internet Explorer should have the name used
in Netscape - "bookmarks". I have yet to find anyone whos true favourite
websites are usually accessed through this menu - its just a convenient
way of keeping track of useful sites, and ends up being a dumping ground
for any sites you find useful. I find that I end up typing my real favourite websites as its quicker - but this surely cant be right... Sooooo, to get around this problem, this window offers another set of favourites, intended to act as your real favourites.

To install, simply unzip the favouriteswindow.exe to somewhere on your C drive. You may wish to create a shortcut to it in your "startup" directory within your start menu so that it automatically launches.

| General |
![]() Type a URL into the dropdown box to add it as a favourite - the URL will be remembered in the dropdown next time you want to visit the page.

| Compatibility |
Should be compatible with both Netscape and Internet Explorer, and all versions
of Windows, but it has only been tested with IE6 using Windows XP. As you may
notice from the screenshot above, Favourites Window will take advantage of XP
themes if enabled.
