Thanks Tramp. I've been waiting for this to appear for a while. Dead
easy to install (even on IE5), but just be sure to drop security
settings to LOW, just to do the install, then return them to what you
normally use. Works really well. Thanks for your efforts with all the
other good new gear too.

cheers

Nice product...too bad they do not have a Firebird/Mozilla version.

I haven't tried the M-W Toolbar, but can recommend SLIM BROWSER which has
built-in M-W Dictionary and Thesaurus search, plus many other search engines
etc.

I prefer WordWeb myself. http://wordweb.info/free/

If this isn't kosher for posting on the group because they sell a
version with more buzzers, whistles, and clicks, somebody please let me
know.
