Did you read the other part on wikipedia ? ---snip-- With the release of the Windows Desktop Update (packaged with Internet Explorer 4.0 as an optional component, and included in Windows 98), Windows Explorer became "integrated" with Internet Explorer, most notably with the addition of navigation arrows (back and forward) for moving between recently visited directories, as well as Internet Explorer's Favorites menu. At the time these changes raised antitrust concerns about the incorporation of what was seen as an application feature, but this feature has since been emulated by most other file browsers. An address bar was also added to Windows Explorer, which a user could type in directory paths directly, and be taken to that folder. It also operated as a URL bar for Internet addresses; web pages would open in the main portion of the window. Another feature that was based on Internet Explorer technology was customized folders. Such folders contained a hidden web page that controlled the way the Windows Explorer displayed the contents of the folder. This feature proved to have security vulnerabilities due to its reliance on ActiveX objects and scripting, and was removed with the introduction of Windows XP. Other new features: The ability to add other toolbars to the task bar, the most visible of these being Quick Launch. "HTML Desktop", which made it possible to turn the desktop background itself into a web page. Single-click activation of icons in Windows Explorer, adhering to a web page paradigm. Desktop Channels. New virtual folders for Scheduled Tasks and Web Folders ---snip-- ------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from this list, please email [email protected] & you will be removed.Yahoo!
