Thanks for the ideas, but I didn't get it to work, here is what I found.
I have Windows 7 home premium and if it's not in the all programs from the start button it won't pin. When I right click a program from the start button it will pin it to the taskbar.
With IE in the taskbar all I have to do is right click on it and a window opens and it will have my Hotmail and G-mail in their and I can click on the one I want and it opens it. ( that works for me )
I have Hotmail and I think outlook an now windows live mail are the
the updates from Hotmail, is this right ?
Again thank you for all the help. Jay
