That is a GREAT idea Justin.

You've inspired me!  I've created a similar tool for Maxthon and IE.  I've
been sure to send all Firefox users over to your blog and I've given you
credit for the inspiration in the installation tool.

You can find the .bat file that creates all the files and installs the menu

That was a good idea... Justin.  Well done.  

This will save lots of time and typing. Though I'll have to be careful not
to be a bandwidth leech by linking to too many external pictures...
