    Small thing really...I have win xp pro, IE 6.0. You used to be able to right click on a picture on cnn.com, yahoo, etc etc, and have an option to zoom in or out. That's not on my 6.0. Is there a way to add that someway? Thanks.

    Unfortunately that facility was excluded from IE 6 - goodness knows why. You are not alone in wishing that it was still there. I don't know of a workaround, but maybe someone else on the Board does.

    Thanks for that. I already use the Power Tweaks Web Accessory for IE 5 for Add to Trusted Zone, etc, but was not aware that the Zoom tool was part of Web Accessories. Let's hope that these useful tools are incorporated into IE 7 by right!

    Hey, I can zoom in and out. Thanks. Not sure what the fixzoom does. Doesn't appear to help much, but thanks for the other thing.

    JAK--Thanks for posting back. Glad to hear the good news.
    Fixzoom apparently avoids distortion "when you view an image in IE that is undefined in size ". Perhaps you just have been lucky so far that none of the images you wanted to zoom on fit that category.
