Tom: It looks like most (all) of the other addons have an installer that creates an "addons" folder in the Quick Search Deskbar program folder (eg. "C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar\addons"). This folder isn't there by default (though I would argue that it should be) so you must create it.
Try this: 1) Create an "addons" folder in your Quick Search Deskbar folder then extract the iptools.zip file into there. If done correctly you will end up with something like "C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar\addons\iptools" and then 5 files in that folder. 2) Reload Deskbar (type ! in the Deskbar field then hit enter). Let me know if you need more specific instructions. To uninstall, simply delete that iptools folder and reload the Deskbar again. -Steve.
