How can I find the “context menu” that controls Bugnosis?
When you click on the Bugnosis icon in the toolbar, it either shows or hides the Bugnosis “analysis window” — a horizontal window that takes up the bottom few lines of your Internet Explorer window. The analysis window is where Bugnosis will tell you about Web bugs that it finds. To find the Bugnosis context menu, you must first make the Bugnosis analysis window appear, and then right-click within that window. Note that right-clicking on the toolbar’s Bugnosis icon itself does not display the context menu. Click here for a picture of the context menu. In the picture, the hourglass shows where the cursor was when the right mouse button was clicked. I’ve heard that Bugnosis 1.1 is an ActiveX control. Aren’t ActiveX controls unsafe? Depends on how they’re used! Bugnosis 1.1 used some ActiveX functionality as part of its installation procedure, but 1.3 uses a different approach. Bugnosis was never labeled “safe for scripting,” in case you’re worried about that.
