List of Internet Explorer add-ons

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of add-ons for Internet Explorer, which includes extensions and toolbars. They are to be used in conjunction with Internet Explorer, and not alone, as they depend on services provided by the browser, or its accompanying Windows RSS Platform.
