Known Bugs:
1. The only problem known
to exist with the toolbar at this time is that the backspace does not work in the search
box. You can overcome this by using the delete key or hight the term you want to
change with your mouse. This issue cannot be resolved.
What makes the ChE Toolbar really great is the
ability to easily customize it with your favorite links....just in case they happen to be
different than ours. You can easily download the latest link updates. Simply
click the update link above and save the file to your Windows or WindowsNT directory
(replacing the current file). Then close all instances of your browser and restart.
That's it, your up to date with the best chemical engineering links!
If you decide that the ChE Toolbar is not for
you, it easily uninstalls. Simply goto "Start", "Settings",
