Comments on: Address toolbar in XP SP3 http://tech.xptechsupport.com/address-toolbar-in-xp-sp3.html Things that I have found or fixed Thu, 04 Dec 2008 01:17:06 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: Bob Coleman http://tech.xptechsupport.com/address-toolbar-in-xp-sp3.html#comment-142 Bob Coleman Sat, 17 May 2008 23:01:55 +0000 http://tech.xptechsupport.com/address-toolbar-in-xp-sp3.html#comment-142 Another alternative is Dave's Quick Search Taskbar Toolbar Deskbar at http://www.dqsd.net/ . This does various things as well as being a pretty competent address bar. One thing missing, as far as I can tell, is history of addresses, but there are other nice features.

You can not simply overwrite the browseui.dll file as it is constantly in use by Windows. You will first need to boot into safe mode and kill the explorer process.
