    Does anyone know if there is a FREEWARE program that will allow the modification of the Windows98 Banner on the StartMenu to something of my own choosing (probably a BMP file)? That's the banner that run north & south NOT the icon on the StartMenu button. I think I once saw such a program but don't recall where.

    Thanks for the response. I have TClockEx and its one of my favorite programs. Unfortunately its reference to Banner is referring to its own "TClockEx" banner which appears during a right-click of the clock in the tray and is called "Fancy Banner". I also have X-Setup with most plugins and can't find what I'm looking for either.

    I know I've seen something out there but can't remember what and/or where it was. And I'm glad you have a similar recollection. Please let me know if you discover such. Thanks.

    Possible idea

    Have you tried the Windows 98 Annoyances site? I'd bet there's a set of instructions or a smallware program that will take care of changing that banner. Course, I've lost a bet or two ...

    Click for Windows Annoyances

    The site will check to see what OS you're using, and will direct you to the right set of pages for Win98.

    Yeah, I've seen that one, too (the program that helps you change the VERTICAL banner you see along the side of the Start Menu when you have hit the Start button, not the icon on the Start button itself), but I can't recall either. I'll join in on the hunt.

    Scouse, the hook99 smallware only works on the button, not the vertical banner.
