With regard to browsers:

I still like MSIE (V6 is last one to work on 98SE)

The ONE thing I like, and want to keep, but do not seem to be able to find is the ability to drop the shortcut directly on the desktop, form where I move to where I want. I haven't used "Favourites" for so long, because I can never FIND anything in there...

Tried latest version of Opera 9.10 - same hassle - is there any plugin for ANY browser (I would LIKE tabs, etc) that does this?

Under file menu on IE7 (I think it's on IE6 too) you have "Send" as an option where you can send to desktop (creating a shortcut).

Another method is to copy your URL hit the windows key(if you have one) and D key together to display the desktop (think that still works in Windows 98) or minimise all your windows to show your desktop, right click and choose new where the option to create a shortcut will appear and then you can paste (ctrl+v) your URL in the shortcut name. after clicking next it should be on your desktop!!! :)
