Re: grouse

Oh, I can find it, Pam, but why should I scroll through a bunch of blank space for it? It used to be right at the top. I rarely need it so it's not important enough to put it on a toolbar.

Kitty - the exchange rates for US dollars to euros or British pounds is on
the MSN money page if that helps.

I know I've said it b4, but I hate upgrades.  This morning Win Explorer 8
jumped on board, and though it doesn't cause any real problems (so far) I really dislike the way it grays out most of the web address, making black 
only one word.

But what's really ticking me this time is Google.  Idid NOT upgrade to a
new Google thing they kept pushing because I didn't know what would happen. I was just fine w/out it. But they still changed things on me. I googled 
"currency conversion calculator"  and got:
Results: 1-10 of about 9,050,000

Sounds good but they will only allow me to look at ONE - which is
something google wants to add to my igoogle toolbar - a toolbar I don't have & don't want.. I could click on a right hand sidebar of sponsored links, which of course I don't want. I don't want to buy anything I just want the exchange rate for a euro. The largest portion of the search list page is 
totally BLANK.
Obviously this can't be right. So I scroll and scroll until I'm past the 
sponsored links and THERE they are.  I cannot immediately see my results
until I first look at what goolge and it's sponsors have to offer.

Why does everyone want to slap another toolbar on my screen? I currently
have NINE available of which I allow 4 to show and that takes up 20% of my 
screen as it is with small icons.

Grrrr
