David, I want (just for my own sake, no one else's) the option to make
the button "Inactive."

Here's why:

I can't count the times that I inadvertently closed TB! while
intending only to minimize it. I have a left-right orientation
disability.

So now, I use the right-click (context) mouse button to get a menu
from the status bar and close it from there. For awhile I was exiting
from the File menu, but that wasn't as handy as closing from the task
bar.

I am afraid if that HTML "button" is active, I will inadvertently
click on it, and there will be something harmful in a message from my
OE/HTML sister, who is forever letting worms etc. onto her machine.

So I want the button to be unuseable, by default, unless the User
configures it to be useable.

Yes. This is what I want, also.

Except, on the first download of a TB! version, I want the button to
be in an Inactive mode, responding neither to OFF nor to ON.

I would like, at the time of Install, to be asked whether I want that
button to work or not.

Would you have an objection to that?

Bless you! Have you had time to do the sweet ones yet?
