Scott? I'm not sure what the throbber is in XP as I use 98, and then it has a shell over it and I use themes with my Gecko browsers and never have used IE.
However, if you visit our theme page here:
http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?id=KMeleonThemesWiki
You'll find a copy of a very nice theme called "WhistlerXP" which has what I take to be at least some sort of IE throbber. Great theme! You may enjoy it---along with the many others!
I hope this helped?

scott You may have possibly to create that throber Yourself.
it is probably copy righted material - it can not be put online -
to reate make screen-shot with a program like "capure pad" (one that makes avi)
then edit avi to have one sequence but no repetition.
You can do that with paint shop pro. Both programs have test versions available,
which is totaly sufficiant if You only want that throbber.
greetings

I could make a throbber based on the WindowsXP flag, as I have the bitmaps for it here which I extracted from shell32.dll a while ago, however as I'm busy with other stuff I don't think I'll bother so much....

I'm curious why you'd even post that message if you have no intention of fulfilling the original poster's request. Power trip?

Probably more to do with being in two minds about it. Doing it now is off the cards, but down the track, well maybe.

BTW, not having XP on my PC, is that the throbber that has a white background?

Yeah it's the Windows flag against a white background.

I found a gif version of the XP throbber and converted it. It's in the
throbbers section on the skins & throbbers page. As I said before, I don't have XP so I don't know the correct rate at which the flag should move, so I just copied the rate of the gif when viewed in irfanview. It moves at a much faster rate than the gif does on the skins & throbbers page.
