Can anyone tell me how to get the similar web site feature
added to my IE6 toolbar. I have the latest updates and
service packs.
When I right click on the toolbar and choose customize,
its not there as an option. I remember having it before,
but must have lost it in a recent update???

Any help would be appreciated. Ive run out of ideas.

Thanks.
 
The related sites feature you probably removed with AdAware for no
good reason, as far as I can see.
There is no spyware in the Registry key that AdAware removes.
If you let AdAware remove it, then try this:

Make up a file from the lines below. Copy into a file called fix.reg
which should be created in Notepad. Do not retype, copy in case of
errors. The 1st line in the file is the line REGEDIT4
Make sure your mail or news reader does not add any spaces to the end
of a line.

Ensure the first long line does not wrap at the space in
"Internet Explorer"

The last line must be blank.
Doubleclick fix.reg

-----copy below this line fix.reg------------
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Extensions\{c95fe080-8f5d-11d2-a20b-00aa003c157a}]
"MenuText"="@shdoclc.dll,-864"
"MenuStatusBar"="@shdoclc.dll,-865"
"Script"=hex(2):43,3a,5c,57,49,4e,44,4f,57,53,5c,77,65,62,5c,72,65,6c,61,74,65,\
64,2e,68,74,6d,00
"clsid"="{1FBA04EE-3024-11D2-8F1F-0000F87ABD16}"
"Icon"=",4"
"HotIcon"=",4"
"ButtonText"="@shdoclc.dll,-866"

Mike,

He meant "Related" as in "Show Related Links" and he has already
signified that the fix worked.

That "feature" must have been from a 3rd party (you installed)
There is no "Similar Web Site" button or menu option in IE.
