If I remember correctly it could be opened on any application and it would go invisible as soon as mouse was moved away from browser window. Have you checked out borwser called Ghostzilla?

Install this add on and whenever you see the tyrant coming your way press Ctrl+tilde (button below escape and above tab on most keyboards) and all of your tabs and current window are killed and replaced with a page you set. The default is a google search on how to increase productivity, something your boss should appreciate! <br /> <br /> Works like a charm, and its better than simply minimizing or closing all tabs b/c minimizing does not eliminate the evidence and closing all tabs leaves you with a blank screen which probably looks worse.

Excellent for catching up on my blog reading, not great for graphic heavy pages though. <br /> Now, all those savvy web folks need to do is design an option for Word 2007, and remove the address bar along the top. I see from your pics that you do not show the address bar, this may be and IE7 thing. <br /> Great find, ATA. Thanks. *THAT* is brilliant!
