MakoButton is a small application that can create buttons for Internet Explorer that launch external applications or URLs. While the second option is not that useful in my opinion the first one could save some time for the user. This is for great for web developers, webmasters and everyone else who regularly starts specific applications when surfing the Internet with Internet Explorer.
A button to launch the email or ftp client, messenger or statistics tool could come in handy. The application accepts executables in exe, com or bat format. A text for the button, an icon and a status bar and tools menu text can be selected during creation. The button should be visible immediately on the toolbar.
Internet Explorer should be closed during the creation to avoid complications. If the button does not appear in the toolbar it needs to be added manually using the Customize menu of Internet Explorer.

Buttons that have been created previously can be edited and deleted at anytime. I received an error on my system during first start which told me that the file COMDLG32.OCX was not registered on my system. I quickly found a website that offered the file for download and explained how to register it.
