Re: [DQSD-Users] [DQSD-Devel] IE 11 breaks DQSD

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

I was able to get the style loader to work again by granting 'users'
'full control' of the Quick Search Deskbar folder security rights. The
menu itself still doesn't appear, but at least it does do something.
This will really help re-styling it.

jsx showpop();
