M Mike Burgess Sep 14, 2003 #2 Ken, Netscape style plugins are a thing of the past ......... In IE these are known as "Browser Helper Objects" (BHOs) By default IE does not provide that info, you can look in the Registry [or] Use a [freeware] 3rd party app to display that info (no install required) BHODemon 1.0 [freeware] http://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm http://www.definitivesolutions.com/files/bhodmon1.zip _______________________________________ Mike Burgess http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/ Blocking Spyware, Adware, Parasites, Hijackers, Trojans, with a HOSTS file http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm [updated 9-12-03] Please post replies to this Newsgroup, email address is invalid
