While studying for the MCDST test, I noticed my internet explorer does not
have the option for adding the related sites button. Searching the internet
I only found one reference to it. It claims some spyware removal programs
delete it... strange.

Anyway, supposedly you activate it by doing the following:
Open Internet Explorer and right click any standard toolbar button, select
customize

1. In the customize toolbar dialog box in the left pane under available
toolbar buttons locate related.

2. Select related and then select add and the related button appears in the
right pane under current toolbar buttons.

"Now any time a user needs to locate information that is similar to what
they are viewing they need only to click the Related button.

Sounds like a very helpful feature

I would like to know how to recover it, or if it was removed with a service
pack, etc...

thanx,
