Re: odd Status Bar behavior in CD windows



You asked for a util to customize the status bar. I know of a
program that can do that but it's an overkill if you have no
interest in the rest of its features. It's Opus. You create just
about anything you want in the status bar such as using a graphical
image for used drive space or to display bitrate of mp3 files etc.

If you are a heavy Windows Explorer user (and not My Computer),
you'll find it quite useful in a lot of ways. Such as creating your
own toolbar with shortcut buttons to your most used programs. If
you access files through My Computer instead of WinExp then it's
probably not for you. You can customize the look of WinExp on each
window and even have 2 directory trees listed. It does so many
things that it would take too much time to list them.
