IE7 Classic Menu Enabler

Internet Explorer 7 Classic Menu Enabler

This is a tiny app that will enable classic menus on IE7. That means your menu bar will ALWAYS be visible and will be ON TOP of the window, like it should.
Enjoy.

Don't want to spoil the party, but the latest IE7 build does this by default :P

a) Nice, they're listening to the users. Now get them to remove the ribbon in Office ;)
b) Maybe it's only in selected markets or sth? I updated today to IE7 and I got v7.0.5730.13, didn't have classic menus enabled.

The ribbon? Why? ;)

It's only for users updating from IE6 to IE7. The rest of the users that updated the browser earlier only get the usual patches, not new settings, so there's an user base for your program ;D

I can assume any of the following positions:
    a) you're blind.
    b) you're secretly working at Microsoft, in the Silly GUI Design area.
    a) you're just trying to nag me.

I'd like to tell you that the correct answer is "b", but unfortunately I'm not in such position. It's not that I like to design Silly GUIs, but I bet they pay good money :)

It could be "a", but I rarely take off my glasses. That leaves you with "c" ;D

Although I think that the Ribbon looks interesting... *hides*

I'll find you someday... believe me. And you'll not be laughing when I'm done with you.

This is getting too off-topic, so I say "LASHiEC WINS!" and finish the convo :)
