I need to hide the Favorites button on IE7. Anyone know how to do this? I can hide the favorites bar, but the button is still there. I also need to hide or disable the drop down button next to the forward button on IE. I have tried to find the buttons ID but no luck. Any help would be great!!

See attached image. Need to hide/disable the buttons in red.

Well, to find the Fav button, I used the @winatpoint() function command and found out that it's on the Favorites Command Bar. I have a timer set to look for and IE window and then cycle through to find the ID of that and Disable it. For the menu, all IE menus have a class of ##32768. In the timer, when it sees that a menu is open, I have it close it right away. For the project I'm working on, the menus are not needed or wanted.

Hmmm you probably need to call the GetParent API function to make sure that menu is owned by IE. Mainly because all menu windows have that same classname even non-IE menus. Below is a list of classnames that Windows uses that are numbers instead of names incase you are interested.

#32768 The class for a menu.
#32769 The class for the desktop window.
#32770 The class for a dialog box.
#32771 The class for the task switch window.
