#7836 - 07/04/02 09:56 PM An IE tweak
Paragon Member Registered: 06/14/02 Posts: 168	I want to change my "Favorites" to "Bookmarks." I want the Favs. menu to say bookmarks, and I want the list items in the menu to say "Add new Bookmark," etc. Anyone know how to do that?

Usually the menu's are a resource file stored somewhere - but this does not have to be the case. _________________________ Domain Registration, Hosting, Management http://www.dollardns.net

SilentRage DollarDNS Owner Registered: 03/04/02 Posts: 1273 Loc: OH, USA	been there done that. It is not stored in any file within the Internet Explorer folder. I did a text search through all the files for "Favorites". No likely matches. However, this may only be because the text is in unicode - which means there's a null character in between every letter. So go ahead. _________________________ Domain Registration, Hosting, Management http://www.dollardns.net
