Re: Two IE icons and Some Tricks

David when you say "system namespace" *what and where* does that mean? And

some users don't care, a lot do.

Any web page your are viewing becomes part of the system namespace. In
previous versions it would be in the Explorer tree but users don't
understand so it was hidden.
