Tabbed browsing for IE 6

MSN Toolbar provides tabbed browsing for IE. I've installed it but have only used it for a few minutes. Don't flame me. Just letting people know.

I don't use it, but I applaud the thread. I'm presuming this is good news, and late news, and I'm sure the IE users will benefit from early notice.

I use Firefox, and I don't even like tabbed browsing, even though I've had it available for months and months.

I recommend tabbed browsing to you. It's da bomb.

Tabbed browsing is the best thing since the demise of DOS, Petronski. It's my favorite computer thingy, followed closely by the wonderfully versatile MS Excel. :o)

It's about time they catch up. Mozilla has had this for a really long time now.

Same here. I could care less about tabbed browsing.

Yes, and Opera had it before Mozilla. Look at the keywords I put it -- they're there.

You know, I think a third party could have added this to IE a long time ago. It's just a toolbar. That's kind of funny.

I'm with you. Tabbed browsing annoyed me, I'll stick to multiple instances when multiply browsing.

I'll wager the toolbar is also spyware.

Tabbed browsing through third party vendors for IE6 has been around a while, the big difference is, you have to pay to use the third party IE6 enhancements.

Oh yeah, I love it when I get about 18 tabs open and I never even wanted for any of them.

I installed firefox and haven't been able to use express outlook since. That really kills me because on these threads there are email campaigns for FReepers. I can't help, and that is what I always do.

Yep. Once the Microsofties won the browser war, they relaxed and went back to counting their money.

Never heard of one, though I did not look. Can you name a couple?

Not off-hand, but I came across a list of them in the MSN Store at Microsoft's website back in December 2004 when looking for AGP drivers for a video card.

Basically true. But it's funny how everybody on FR is a big capitalist except when it comes to M$ ...

Are you saying Firefox is also an Email program that can replace outlook express?
