the list any details as to how many songs/entries are on the drive or,

It is some sort of Microsoft Script Editor and I am not ...

Add/Remove Programs, and in C:\Program Files
But it doesn't show up in my IE6, nor as a choice in View | Toolbars.
Any explanations?

Running windows xp home with service pack 2.  When windows boots it will come
