@jme0001:

I sent you email with the other script I wrote and instructions for installing it into IE7Pro.

Let me know if that script works for you (i.e., removes the ad on the right of your Hotmail inbox).

Version 4.8 prevents a Javascript error that started appearing recently.

I installed the script and it is working like charm with one little problem. I have a blank area at the bottom. Anyone knows how to remove it? I tried switching view of reading pane and found out with reading pane set at bottom, most spaces were wasted.

Below is my version of the script. It not only removes the ads, but also removes the reading pane. You can give it a try and see if it solves the problem you are having with a blank area at bottom ... note that some of the comment lines may get wrapped in the text below ... make sure all comment lines begin with //

Thanks so much for sharing, langware. It didn't make much differnce to the original script on this post, blank space still appears. I suppose if its because I am using the outdated IE6.

[2009-08-19 14:23:25]langware says:
@jiu2k,

If/when you consider upgrading to a newer browser ... consider FireFox. I have made FireFox my default browser mainly because IEPro is no longer being supported, and FireFox has many many supported and free extensions including GreaseMonkey (which will run user scripts) and Adblock Plus (which blocks ads).

[2009-08-28 07:22:07]Protector0ne says:
Langware, I believe you are incorrect in your assumption that IEPro is no longer supported. A new version was released not that long ago.

[2009-08-28 20:12:33]langware says:
@ProtectorOne:

Yes, you are correct ... a new version of IEPro was released not long ago. So, in theory, IEPro is still supported. My apologies to anyone that was confused by my post.

But let me clarify my position .... IE8 has been out for quite some time and (to my knowledge) there is no version of IEPro that is documented to be compatible with IE8. I've read many posts in these forums from people who have managed to get the current version(s) of IEPro to work with IE8, but usually some hack is required (by the user). That, plus the apparent absence of posts/activity from the IEPro developers, is what lead me to state (incorrectly) that IEPro was no longer supported. I should have qualified my statement to say that there is no official version of IEPro that is documented to work with IE8, and no announcement from the IEPro developers of a timeframe when such an IE8 compatible release will be made available.

I think IEPro is a wonderful product. Unfortunately, the apparent lack of response from the IEPro developers (on the status of an IE8 compatible version) has resulted in my moving to Firefox and its various extensions (which are being actively supported).
