I'm hoping someone can give me some help with a small adjustment I'd like to make to Internet Explorer. I use SBC Yahoo! DSL as my ISP. Yahoo added an item to my IE Tools menu called "SBC Yahoo! Services." This has two layers of submenus: SBC Yahoo! Sign In > <List of user IDs>. I use this at least once a day to log in to my account, and I was thinking it would be convenient if my user ID could be placed on the main menu to avoid threading the lists to arrive at it. I used a resource editor to find and examine the file that controls the main menus in both Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer (c:\windows\system32\browselc.dll). But of course there is nothing there about the Yahoo! addition to the menu. The file C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\common\yiesrvc.dll appears to be the main player--using Manage Add-ons in the IE Tools menu to disable it takes the whole Yahoo addition out of the menu, but the resource editor shows no "Menu" item in the file, so I'm stumped. Is there any way for a non-expert user like me to change this menu? While I'm at it, here is another question: In the file browselc.dll the two menus that appear to represent the main menus in Windows Explorer and My Computer (nos. 263 and 266) both have at the end of the Help menu, "About Windows 95." I am running XP SP2. What's up with that? The Windows menus themselves just read "About Windows."
Thanks very much for any pointers you can give men.

What does the link in the address bar look like as you're prompted to log in to your account? I'm just wondering if you can set up some easier access to the login.. Here are a few things I would try:
- Drag the site's icon from the Address Bar to the Links area creating a quick link.
- Right-click, click "Create Shortcut".
- Create a Bookmark.
