==== Overview  ====

CustomMenu is an easier and faster way to navigate the Internet.You can get the Web
 site you are looking for by just one point-and-click on the menu. The CustomMenu is 
capable of inserting some extra menus to MS IE browsers menu bar, managing and 
displaying a URL collection as menus from a web page. The menus dynamically integrate 
and work with the MS IE browser seamlessly, they are able to be replaced by another 
URL collection if the user select another Web page with CustomMenu feature, or be 
removed if the user navigates a URL in a different way (typing URL on Location or 
selecting from the Bookmarks). 

CustomMenu can be used as an extension ofMS IE favorites or a efficient way to
 display URL collection in a Web page. It is a very useful software 
for both personal users and Web developers.

For personal users, the software provides a collection of 800+ popular URLs and shows
 the URLs on the MS IEs menu bar as dropdown menu. The URL collection is classified 
in nine categories, including business/money, news, living, education, sports, 
shopping and etc. By just one point-and-click on the menu, it will get you to the Web 
site you are looking for right away. It saves you a lot of time from typing URL or 
searching URL then clicking back and forth. The software also provides a URL collection 
template for user to add more URLs and show collections as menus. The software 
provides an edit tool - CMEditor, which can be used to edit the URL collections very 
easily. CMEditor can be accessed by clicking the Start button, and then clicking 
Programs\CustomMenu\CMEditor menu. After installation, you may start CustomMenu from 
a desktop icon, Start menu or MS IE Favorites. Moreover, with CustomMenu technology, 
CustomMenu EZ-Shopping provides an efficient approach for user to go shopping in Amazon, 
eToys and other large Web stores. The URL collection is common for both Netscape and IE *. 
As long as you install both CustomMenu for Netscape and for IE, you may use the same URL 
collection from either Netscape or IE 

For Web developers,CustomMenu plug-in, the core of the software, is a very powerful 
component to build your Web page. It provides a capabilityto manage and display collections
 of a large number of URL as menu from a Web page. Users can navigate URL directly from the 
browser's menu bar, instead of digging in on Web page more than once. It saves more valuable 
space on your Web page for other information or banners instead of URL index. CustomMenu is 
a very useful component to build commercial sites such as an Internet mall, bookstore and etc.
