I am trying to offer free dialup access on my website and become more of a
content provider.
BUT, i am having trouble creating the .ins file.

I was sent the basic file as part of a reseller deal but I want to change
some things in it.

Firstly, are the Quick_Link_X (where X is the number)
Are they the links that appear in the favourites of IE (I bet this totally
excludes NN doesn't it!)?

Can I change the following?
--snip--
Quick_Link_1_Name=Customize Links.url
Quick_Link_1=http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/redir.dll?prd=ie&pver=5.0&ar=CLi
nks
Quick_Link_3_Name = Windows.URL
Quick_Link_3=http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/redir.dll?prd=ie&ar=windows
--snip--

Also, can I change the Search_Page and Help_Page settings to those of my
own?

And my second question is:
What does the datasrc attribute do? I understand it is the url of a file
(.txt?) where the content of say <.marquee will be pulled in from.
Is it present in any other elements and does it: a) actually work, and b)
work in IE or NN?
