Using WindowBlinds and BT Internet Browser

March 25, 2006 9:54 AM from

Hey, can anyone please tell me why I cannot run Window Blinds and my Internet browser together properly? As soon as I click on my Title Bar, the whole window shuts down. Does anyone know (or even understand!) what I mean and how to rectify the problem?

How about ya telling us what browser your using. WB and Crazy/IE browsers work fine together.

BT is based on IE. Can you use IE successfully?

If so, you might try excluding BT from being skinned by WB. In WB Config, select Per Application settings on the right side panel. Add BT to the Per Application list & exclude completely. If BT works after exclusion, you might be able to change the exclusion setting so WB skins the TitleBar.

Yahoo Messenger is not compatible with WB & has to be excluded. It's possible that the same applies to BT...

I'm with BT Internet but I don't use their browser. I don't like the ide of an ISP installing their branded version of something on my pc. I use IE and Firefox, both of which work fine with WB.

No, thats the point. I can't use IE. Well that's a lie, I can use the browser but whenever I click on the tool bar at the top of the page, I lose the whole screen and have to re-log on to the internet.

Are you saying that you get the same behavior with the BT browser & with IE? If it's happening with IE, it's not likely to be related to WB.

Do you get an error message? Does the browser do anything or does it just vanish? Does it leave the browser titlebar at the top, by any chance?

or is it minimizing to the system tray? - an option that can be used in WB user overrides
