<p>I like to keep my links available at the top of my IE page. I also like to keep them personalized. You can do this too.</p>
<p>First, unlock your Toolbar by right clicking where your Back, Forward and Home buttons are</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: black 2px solid;" src="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie1.jpg" alt="Modded IE Guide" width="648" height="461" /></a></p>
<p>Then select to have your links available<span id="more-133"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: black 2px solid;" src="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie2.jpg" alt="Modded IE Guide" width="648" height="461" /></a></p>
<p>Then drag and release your Links bar where you want it. Assign all your most viewed sites into the Links folder. For each site shortcut, right click the individual buttons, and select properties</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie3.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="border: black 2px solid;" src="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie3.jpg" alt="Modded IE Guide" width="648" height="461" /></a></p>
<p>Next click: Change Icon. The next viewer will probably just show the few options currently available for that file.<br />
Select Browse, to see all system32 folders and files</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie4.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: black 2px solid;" src="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie4.jpg" alt="Modded IE Guide" width="648" height="461" /></a></p>
<p>Then search for Shell32.dll. This is where most of windows icons are stored. Simply search for one you like, click it and hit OK</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: black 2px solid;" src="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie5.jpg" alt="Modded IE Guide" width="648" height="461" /></a></p>
<p>Do this for each and you&#8217;re set.<br />
If you like an icon that&#8217;s not here because it belongs to another program, find the program in the Start menu.</p>
<p>I wanted the Ultrawipe Hard drive icon for my web page shortcut</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie6.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: black 2px solid;" src="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie6.jpg" alt="Modded IE Guide" width="648" height="461" /></a></p>
<p>Right click and select properties</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie7.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: black 2px solid;" src="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie7.jpg" alt="Modded IE Guide" width="648" height="461" /></a></p>
<p>In the shortcut tab click: Change Icon</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie8.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: black 2px solid;" src="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie8.jpg" alt="Modded IE Guide" width="648" height="461" /></a></p>
<p>Then select the pic location, right click and copy</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie9.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: black 2px solid;" src="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie9.jpg" alt="Modded IE Guide" width="648" height="461" /></a></p>
<p>Later, return to your links bar and right click, paste into the icon address bar</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie10.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: black 2px solid;" src="http://www.pcmodhouse.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/ie10.jpg" alt="Modded IE Guide" width="648" height="461" /></a></p>
<p>Press enter and now you have those icons at your disposal.</p>
<p>Click OK twice and your done</p>

<br />
<span id="more-271"></span></p>
<ul>3) Now your at the DOSBox prompt you need to do a couple of commands before your up and running3a) My Settlers 2 folder is in my D:\games\settlers ( I dont think DOSBox likes really deep directories so keep them under 255 chars long) a location like above is perfect</p>
<p>3b) So I first have to type &#8220;mount d d:\&#8221; press enter <em>without the quotes</em></p>
<p>3c) Then I type &#8220;d:&#8221; <em>without the quotes</em> press enter</p>
<p>3d) Then I type &#8220;cd games&#8221; <em>without the quotes</em> press enter</p>
<p>3e) Then I type &#8220;cd se&#8221; <em>without the quotes</em> HIT the Tab key to tab complete the directory name and press enter</p>
<p>3f) You are now in the settlers directory &#8211; type &#8220;s2&#8243; <em>without the quotes</em> press enter</ul>
<p>And your done! Enjoy!</p>
