to open them from favorities menu.
they will be above the addres bar as icons. then i will press them.
then gmail web site, yahoo mail site and hotmail site will come.

How about adding them to the Links bar? If you don't want to do that,
here's some info on making your own IE toolbar buttons:

See this site for how IE's toolbar buttons are constructed and behave:

Here's a pretty easy method I haven't seen before:
