Actualy, I have been messing with this app as well, although I've been primarily working on the IE part. Thus far, I've created an Internet search bar that lets me choose one of 7 search engines to use. I've got lots of other plans for the internet end of it. I like your ideas on the HD explorer end, but honestly have no idea how to acomplish it. I'm also wanting to be rid of the yellow splash screen, but am more than happy to provide a link on the bar itself. As Grigri's site is ofline, perhaps someone here at VP would be willing to help?

On the search file on the harddisk thing, here are a few pointer on how to go through the hard drive:


var FSO = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
FSO.GetFolder( "c:\\" );
ProcessFolder(root);</blockquote>
FSO = null;

function ProcessFolder( folder ) {

// do stuff with the folder here (store search data etc...)

// Go through all Sub Folders and call the same function on them.
var fc = new Enumerator(folder.SubFolders);
for (; !fc.atEnd(); fc.moveNext()) {
ProcessFolder( fc.item() );
}
}


So many people have asked me to remove the annoying yellow splash... I don't even know why I put it there in the first place!

Anyway, slight problem : I dredged up the code from my dungeon drive, and tried to edit it, but the darn thing doesn't work any more. It looks like I'm going to have to re-code the whole thing from scratch. Argh!!

My site isn't really offline, it's just been moved : it's at www.virtualplastic.net/grigri

Thanks for the interest guys, sorry for the bad news
