Hello,
I recently purchased a new notebook computer that came with ms windows
home
premium edition installed on it. I had already been using IE 7 that was
installed on a 'legal' computer with windows xp home edition installed on
it.
My biggest complaint with IE 7 is that you are SO limited as to what you
can
do to customize the browser to make it more personable for each one's own
taste. In my case...I would much rather see the favorites stars, ( both
the
single star and the double stars ) be on the right side of the toolbar,
instead of the left side as they are now.

*****************************************************

I know of no browser that will allow you to do that.

Thanks for the reply, unless I'm mistaken..in the previous version of the
internet explorer browser ( IE6 ) the favorite star was already on the right
hand side of the toolbar. For your information..it's that way also in the
firefox browser, which seems to be a lot more customizable than IE7.
David

You are right about that in IE6. But IE 7 is good once you get around in it.
Have you looked in the"Tools" section on the far right hand top side? There
is a "menu bar" with file, edit, etc,whichif you click on becomes part of IE7
window an another list of toolbars as well, like for putting favs down the
left hand side as it was in IE6.
The only fault that I can find with it is that you can't check your mail
from it, like you could in IE6; remember open up Outlook Express?

Hello Mick,
Thanks SO much for the quick reply, I'm aware of the menu bar in IE7, I
normally keep it hidden because it gives me more viewing space on the
computer screen. If I need to use it though, all I have to do is press the
'Alt' key on my keyboard, and it appears. As far as the favorites list on the
left-hand side of the page, normally when you click on the favorites 'star'
the favorites list automatically appears, then when you click on one it
dissappears automatically. By the way..I work in a retail type of job, and I
waited on a couple yesterday from 'down under'.
Thanks

Us Aussies DO travel the world a fair bit; and we have our own
slang(lingo)!!!!
In IE6, we also had the history button across the top to click on; that is
hidden in the toolbar options under tools.
The one good advantage about IE7 is that can close a lot, and, as you say,
have more room for the NET
Have a great day.

Right click on bar which contains favourite star and tabs etc.
Choose "customise commands bar"
choose "Add or remove commands"
add "read mail" to current toolbar buttons.

When I did that a button appeared that takes me directly into windows mail.
Thank you very much Julian

WRONG!

You have lost the plot Urban.
Is EVERYBODY wrong except YOU?

 

[Guest]

Urban, Julian is CORRECT in his answer to me, and I appreciated his advice,
and thanked him.

You, in your infinite wisdow(haha), have said one word about his advice in
your reply to him:"WRONG"

And your low-life abuse is not appreciated. And you have to admit when you
are wrong.

If I was in your customer database, either I would be very lonely, or very
scared, knowing that you were looking after my Computers and Network.

IE6 was in XP, don't you remember. And you could open Outlook Express in XP
through IE6; and I use Outlook in vista. I DO run more than 1 computer, with
differing OS.

You said Julian's answer to setting up the Mail button in vista was WRONG.
And your answer is here for ALL to see.

WRONG!

 

[Rock]

Look, I don't have a stake in this, but you are misunderstanding threading,
and sorry to be blunt but, it isn't an issue of "how you read it", it's an
issue of fact and how the messages were posted. Yes, Julian replied to you
first (in time), and then Richard replied later, but he sent his message in
reply to yours. Just because Julian's came first doesn't mean Richard
replied to him. That is what can happen in a threaded discussion. One can
choose which message in a thread to reply to. Actually you can do that even
from the awful web interface.

This is in fact a threaded newsgroup - not a chat room or forum or
discussion group - in spited of the (awful) web interface. Richard is
using a newsreader (as am I), where posts are threaded. He replied to you.

The issue here is your lack of understanding on threading, (and what appears
to be an apparent unwillingness to accept that you don't understand it).
That's where your misconception is coming from, and right now you're being a
bit stubborn about it. Look at all the messages in that Google thread. See
how each one lists the message to which the reply was made. Click on the
link in that message posted by Richard. You will see it was your reply to
which he responded.

I don't have to take a second look, Mick. I have examined the thread in
it's entirety in both the Google groups and with my newsreader, Windows
Mail.

Why don't you do yourself a favor. Since you're using Vista, go into
Windows Mail and access this newsgroup from there, using the Microsoft new
server, msnews.microsoft.com, through Microsoft communities. You will
clearly see the threading that way.

discussion.
Who is wrong, and what is wrong, in that case?

Have a second look at it Rock.

Mick Murphy

Mick, sorry but you are mistaken. Richard replied to you, not to Julian.
You are not understanding the threading properly. Here is a link to the
complete thread from Google groups.

http://groups.google.com/group/micr...a4cf5?lnk=st&q=&rnum=3&hl=en#21acaec54f0a4cf5

Look at the message window which contains Richard's reply where he
writes,
"Wrong" you will see it is your post he is replying to. It has "Mick"
<M....> and a link near the bottom of that window. The link is:


Click on it and it shows that post of yours to which he replied. It's
clear, he replied to you, not Julian.

To clear something up, Urban NEVER answered my question. He answered
Julian's post by telling him that he was WRONG, when Julian was
CORRECT.

You readers be the judge by reading the first post here in this thread!

I replied to you, or can't you see that you were the one who said, and
I
quote again:

"You are right about that in IE6. But IE 7 is good once you get around
in
it.
Have you looked in the"Tools" section on the far right hand top side?
There
is a "menu bar" with file, edit, etc,whichif you click on becomes part
of
IE7
window an another list of toolbars as well, like for putting favs down
the
left hand side as it was in IE6.
The only fault that I can find with it is that you can't check your
mail
from it, like you could in IE6; remember open up Outlook Express?"

You can't even admit that you wrote the above: quote of quote:

Urban, Julian is CORRECT in his answer to me, and I appreciated his
advice,
and thanked him.

You, in your infinite wisdow(haha), have said one word about his
advice
in
your reply to him:"WRONG"

And your low-life abuse is not appreciated. And you have to admit
when
you
are wrong.

Hello,
I recently purchased a new notebook computer that came with ms
windows
home
premium edition installed on it. I had already been using IE 7
that
was
installed on a 'legal' computer with windows xp home edition
installed
on
it.
My biggest complaint with IE 7 is that you are SO limited as to
what
you
can
do to customize the browser to make it more personable for each
one's
own
taste. In my case...I would much rather see the favorites stars,
(
both
the
single star and the double stars ) be on the right side of the
toolbar,
instead of the left side as they are now.

*****************************************************

I know of no browser that will allow you to do that.

Thanks for the reply, unless I'm mistaken..in the previous version
of
the
internet explorer browser ( IE6 ) the favorite star was already on
the
right
hand side of the toolbar. For your information..it's that way also
in
the
firefox browser, which seems to be a lot more customizable than
IE7.

You are right about that in IE6. But IE 7 is good once you get
around
in
it.
Have you looked in the"Tools" section on the far right hand top
side?
There
is a "menu bar" with file, edit, etc,whichif you click on becomes
part
of
IE7
window an another list of toolbars as well, like for putting favs
down
the
left hand side as it was in IE6.

Hello Mick,
Thanks SO much for the quick reply, I'm aware of the menu bar in
IE7,
I
normally keep it hidden because it gives me more viewing space on
the
computer screen. If I need to use it though, all I have to do is
press
the
'Alt' key on my keyboard, and it appears. As far as the favorites
list
on
the
left-hand side of the page, normally when you click on the
favorites
'star'
the favorites list automatically appears, then when you click on
one
it
dissappears automatically. By the way..I work in a retail type of
job,
and I
waited on a couple yesterday from 'down under'.
Thanks

Us Aussies DO travel the world a fair bit; and we have our own
slang(lingo)!!!!
In IE6, we also had the history button across the top to click on;
that
is
hidden in the toolbar options under tools.
The one good advantage about IE7 is that can close a lot, and, as
you
say,
have more room for the NET
Have a great day.

Right click on bar which contains favourite star and tabs etc.
Choose "customise commands bar"
choose "Add or remove commands"
add "read mail" to current toolbar buttons.

When I did that a button appeared that takes me directly into
windows
mail.
Thank you very much Julian

WRONG!

You have lost the plot Urban.
Is EVERYBODY wrong except YOU?

:

WRONG!

 

[Julian]

Look, I don't have a stake in this, but you are misunderstanding
threading, and sorry to be blunt but, it isn't an issue of "how you read
it", it's an issue of fact and how the messages were posted. Yes, Julian
replied to you first (in time), and then Richard replied later, but he
sent his message in reply to yours. Just because Julian's came first
doesn't mean Richard replied to him. That is what can happen in a
threaded discussion. One can choose which message in a thread to reply
to. Actually you can do that even from the awful web interface.

This is in fact a threaded newsgroup - not a chat room or forum or
discussion group - in spited of the (awful) web interface. Richard is
using a newsreader (as am I), where posts are threaded. He replied to
you.

The issue here is your lack of understanding on threading, (and what
appears to be an apparent unwillingness to accept that you don't
understand it). That's where your misconception is coming from, and right
now you're being a bit stubborn about it. Look at all the messages in
that Google thread. See how each one lists the message to which the reply
was made. Click on the link in that message posted by Richard. You will
see it was your reply to which he responded.

I don't have to take a second look, Mick. I have examined the thread in
it's entirety in both the Google groups and with my newsreader, Windows
Mail.

Why don't you do yourself a favor. Since you're using Vista, go into
Windows Mail and access this newsgroup from there, using the Microsoft new
server, msnews.microsoft.com, through Microsoft communities. You will
clearly see the threading that way.

This is a reasonable account.
Mind you, just shouting 'wrong' in a somewhat triumphant manner
wasn't particularly illuminating.

 

[David Qunt]

What a totally bizarre thread...

Steve

Completely agree.

All I understand from it is that "Mick Murphy" is "in Australia".

And someone will probably be along in a minute to say even that's not true

 

[Daze N. Knights]

As I read it, Mick Murphy is actually "in Australia (QLD)," unless that
last bit is, perhaps, some kind of artifact here that no one else is
seeing . . .
