Tweak Internet Explorer with IE Tweaker Plus

Our IE9 Tweaker v 1.0 allowed you to tweak a few settings in IE9 RC. Our Home Page Maker allows you you to customize your Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome & Opera browser home page. Now combining the best tweaks of these two apps – and more – we have now developed and released a new freeware IE9 Tweaker Plus.

If you are unable to disable ClearType Font in IE9 using this app, the alternative is to disable Hardware Acceleration as Microsoft has since tied ClearType into the Accelerated Graphics. To Disable: Internet Options\Advanced Tab check, Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering.

IE9 Tweaker Plus also allows you to create a custom home page. Its Home Page Maker module allows you customize your Internet Explorer 9 home page. This is how a customized home page can look in Internet Explorer 9!

To learn more about how it works or to customize your Firefox, Chrome & Opera browser home page, you can visit Home Page Maker.

IE9 Tweaker Plus also allows you the restore all Internet Explore 9 settings to its default values. You have to first click on Restore and then click on Apply.
