Just curious if this is where it writes the information?

Or if you're into reg editing this will add Trillian or whatever up there, SO modify to what you want. Installit = path to the Trillian EXE file: with a backslash \ and whatever follows

I believe this comes from Kellys site

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions\{2ef50289-0ea7-482e-a30b-4947a81e44cf}", "ButtonText", "Trillian", REG_SZ

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions\{2ef50289-0ea7-482e-a30b-4947a81e44cf}", "clsid", "{1FBA04EE-3024-11d2-8F1F-0000F87ABD16}", REG_SZ

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions\{2ef50289-0ea7-482e-a30b-4947a81e44cf}", "Default Visible", "YES", REG_SZ

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions\{2ef50289-0ea7-482e-a30b-4947a81e44cf}", "Exec", Installit & "Trillian", REG_SZ

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions\{2ef50289-0ea7-482e-a30b-4947a81e44cf}", "HotIcon", Installit & "Trillian.exe,117", REG_SZ

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions\{2ef50289-0ea7-482e-a30b-4947a81e44cf}", "Icon", Installit & "Trillian.exe,191", REG_SZ

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions\{2ef50289-0ea7-482e-a30b-4947a81e44cf}", "MenuText", "Trillian", REG_SZ

sorry but thats from my VB app but it contains what you need.

For those reg minded let me know if what keys it writes as I'd rather do it that way since I have HOME and thus not gpedit.msc

This is a simpler reg method for adding an Icon and I think it came from either Billsway or Kelly's

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions\{8b2d996f-b7d1-4961-a929-414d9cf5ba7b}]

"CLSID"="{1FBA04EE-3024-11d2-8F1F-0000F87ABD16}"

"ButtonText"="MS-KB"

"Icon"="%SystemRoot%\\System32\\shell32.dll,281"

"HotIcon"="%SystemRoot%\\System32\\shell32.dll,281"

"Default Visible"="Yes"

"Exec"="http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=FH;EN-US;KBHOWTO"

"MenuText"="MS-KB"

That will add MS Knowledge base up there and its easy to change to what you want.
