Unfortunately it's an IE Toolbar. We have looked at offering some basic DVD Talk searches for use with Mozilla, but to my knowledge Mozzilla isn't set up to do toolbars like IE is.

Actually, you can write a ton of plug-ins for mozilla. You could probably do a similar thing through their easysearch/mycroft project. I'm too lazy to try to figure it out though.

This is pretty sweet!

Any chance of getting Amazon.co.uk added to the dropdown, for us R2 fans?

Hmmm...when changing things in "Options", nothing much seems to happen (except for the descriptive text toggle). I'd really like a wide search box, but I can't get it to change size. Any suggestions?

any chance an application like that "IE Spell" you pointed us to awhile back could be worked into the toolbar

I know I mentioned it in the original toolbar thread.. but if it was answered, I must have missed it..

I think a built it spelling (and possible grammar) check in a navigator toolbar would be a pretty sweet addition and set it apart from the competition.

I just tried this again. I’m unable to open IE, specifically a DVDTalk thread, by clicking on the link provided in the thread update email with the popup blocker enabled. Otherwise it seems OK, and the links work if IE is already open.

If you remember, I couldn’t get the original version to install at all, perhaps because I also have the yahoo browser installed (but it’s not the default).

XP, IE6.x

I am sure all the Apple users would love to see something like this (I know I would) - if you start working on one for mozilla please consider supporting Safai as well as it is a mozilla based browser.

I personally plan to never use a Wintel machine again if possible. Since I am starting my own company, may be possible.

Cool! How about a DVD Talk Logo on the toolbar. Also, what will the zoom buttons zoom - text, graphics, both?

I'm considering loading this at work, mainly for the popup blocker function. Has anybody else done it at work and had problems? Got in trouble?

thanks

I downloaded this, and both Adaware and MS Spyware told me it was Adware. Uninstalled it immediately.

i like the the 1st toolbar. i downloaded the second when it was new but i preferred the first. but now quite a few of the search functions don't work anymore. i don't want version 2 (too many options and features that i don't want or will ever use) so am i just stuck with it, or can it somehow be upgraded or fixed to work, which having to upgrade the program?
