Crazy Browser is a customizable mouse navigation utility. You can create your own mouse gestures that will provide you with the easy access you need from your Web browser. Crazy Browser also comes along with several plug-ins you can choose from. As of right now, there are three types of plug-ins you can get for Crazy Browser and those are COM Objects, Scripts and Executable Files. That's hard to find with any other browser! As if all of that weren't enough, Crazy Browser also comes with a group feature, multimedia data loading, tab status indicators, a middle mouse button feature and a zooming Web page choice.

This browser is also very secure and like I said earlier, it comes with no malware whatsoever. Crazy Browser has been around for several years, but it still works like a charm. Also, as far as I know, it works with any Windows version up to Vista and the latest version is Crazy Browser 3.0.

So, if you're interested, you can download Crazy Browser for yourself right here. Or, if you'd like to learn more about it before you commit yourself, you can read through some common FAQs on this Web site. Go on and check it out. Who knows, it might just help you take your browsing experience to a whole new level

Backup your Address Book

The first thing to do, to make it simpler for you, is to create a folder on your hard drive (in My Documents, or Desktop) called Address Book Backups (or whatever you like). This will make it easier to save the backup and then copy it to your external media in the final step below.

1. On the Outlook Express toolbar, click Export, and then click Address Book.
2. Click Text File (Comma Separated Values), and then click Export.
3. Click Browse.
4. Find the folder you created for your Address Book backups
5. In the File Name box, type address book backup, and then click Save.
6. Click Next.
7. Click to select the check boxes for the fields that you want to export, and then click Finish.
8. Click OK and then click Close.

After you've saved the Address Book Backup, put a writable CD or DVD into your DVD/CD drive, right-click on the folder containing your backup, choose "Copy to" from the menu and choose your CD/DVD drive. You can, if you choose (although there is no reason to do so) use your CD-ROM/DVD burning software.

Our suggestion is that you don't use CD or DVD to backup your Address Book The file is very small, normally under one megabyte. We'd recommend you buy a USB flash drive and save your backup there

Is there is anyway I can read the password that the ******** cover up. I bet many other readers have been wondering this too

there is a way to see what's behind those asterisks. There are several free programs that perform that function, and one of these is always in our software bag of tricks. It's impossible to remember all those passwords for email accounts and other programs on your computer that require passwords. And if you try to see what they are, all you see is ********. For the Web-site passwords we (of course) use RoboForm. But for programs on our computers that require passwords such as FTP programs, Email programs, etc. we use a small freeware program called Asterisk Key by Passware.

All you have to do is open up the program that keeps a password hidden by asterisks, open up Asterisk Key, click "Recover" and the password under the asterisks is revealed.

Simple to use and it works like a charm. While there oodles of theses kinds of program available (some not free) we're partial to Asterisk Key. You can get it free by visiting this site

To put favorite email addresses or favorites at the top and the rest alphabetically in the address book or favorites, type 0 space in front of name or site and they will be placed at top of list. i find this very handy
