The popular and useful FoxyTunes makes the jump from Firefox to its first version for Internet Explorer, retaining all of its functionality without gaining much in size.

In fact, this IE plug-in is only 150 KB larger than its Firefox cousin, and that's the only obvious difference. The interface is the same, giving you full control over your music player from within your browser. Play, Skip Forward, Skip Backward, Hide Player and all the other music navigations in the original FoxyTunes are here, as is the built-in music and lyric Search function.

Some of the more enticing aspects of the Firefox version haven't made their way to the IE version--yet. Skins aren't available, and the Options menu offers slightly fewer choices--there's no alarm clock, nor a sleep timer, nor an autohide feature for discrete parts for the interface. The IE version also only supports 18 different music players at this time, as opposed to the 21 supported in the Firefox version.

Despite these minor-but-noticeable deficiencies, FoxyTunes for IE is still the best way to make your IE 7 browser rock out.

What’s new in version 3.0

Version 3.0 adds Yahoo! Media Player support, an integrated Web Media Player, enhanced Signatunes support, support for Firefox 3.0.

Still PERFECT, even w/ IE
iluminamelunaAugust 28, 2007
Pros
I love the ability to not have to go looking for my player: being able to just click to go to the next song, see the lyrics to those unintelligible songs we constantly misquote, find more similar artists when I feel like surfing for more music, and generally just do whatever I'd normally do w/ my media player w/out having to call it every time.
Cons

JUST SWITCH ON YOUR PLAYER & SURF. YOU DON'T NEED THIS

Pros
NONE, UNLESS YOU ARE "EXTREMELY" LAZY
Cons
WHAT IS ALL THIS HYPE FOR? YOU DO NOT NEED THIS GARBAGE. IT'S SIMPLER TO JUST SWITCH ON YOUR PLAYER TO LISTEN TO MUSIC WHILE YOU SURF. SO WHAT IS THIS.........?
Summary
Why no Alarm feature?

Pros
If you're in dire need of FoxyTunes and you accept the few features available for the IE version...sure, why not.
Cons
It's a lesser version of the one offered for Firefox. No alarm, sleep timer, etc..
Summary
Great tool bar and IE add on
galeC91December 29, 2006
Pros
I am very impressed with this IE add since i still have an office computer that is "required" to have IE (all MS products actually). I have Firefox on my home computer so i have gotten used to the great functionality that it offers and wanted to tie that in with my office IE environment. <p> <p>you cant go wrong with it... small size and great functionality. plus it is free!
Cons
no skins for that bit of extra customisation.. but no real big negatives.
Summary
Now IE users get a taste of FoxyTunes

Amazing and Innovative

Pros
FoxyTunes is one of the better add-ons for Mozilla Firefox: a media player in your browser, what's better? Now, with its IE support, even more people can enjoy it. Perfect for people who can't think straight without music.
Cons
I don't think it supports playlists yet, but that would be a great addition.
