"Paste and Go" option for Internet Explorer 7 ?

[drive55]

On a previous machine that I gave to a friend,

I had a "Copy and Go" option in the Right-click context menu in Internet Explorer 7,

for non-hyperlinked plain text urls.

I don't know how it got there? but it was super-quick & useful.

Just reloaded another machine from scratch, & now I don't have it there.

Anybody have any idea how/where to get it?

I know it's a standard plug-in for Firefox/Mozilla - will that plug-in work at all on IE7 w/o corrupting it ?

I also run Quero Toolbar & IE7 Pro in IE7

(also use 'Fox, Opera, & Chrome for various things - but I want this functionality for IE7)

There are some AutoHotKey scripts that convert plain text to urls,

but since they're dependent on a L- or R- mouse click-hold,

they often conflict with other AHK & StrokeIt functions I already use.

Any suggestions for other progs or scripts, Reg tweaks, etc. that can do this would be appreciated ! Thanks

**** edit **** I changed the post title from "Copy and Go" to "Paste and Go" ,

because that's what the function is really called -

I finally realized that it's built-in to Quero Internet Explorer toolbar,

and shows itself in the R-click context menu when the address bar is R-clicked

to paste a non-hyperlinked text url.

The Bayden IEToys

http://www.bayden.com/ietoys/

has the component "Linkify" that does the same thing -

select the text url, R-click & choose "Linkify", then the non-hyperlinked url

will open in a new tab.

There's other time/effort saving features in that app too.

But I still wanna know where "Copy and Go" for Internet Explorer came from,

or is available from !!

Open Selected URL put 3 context menus in IE when u right-click on blank area of web page. uses .html with encoded java script to do the job. So don't think it will conflict any hotkeys u might have.

Geej, thanks very much for this suggestion - looks like several nice little utilities they offer.

I hope to be able to script these kinds of functions w/ AHK or similar.
