This is an Internet Explorer toolbar button implementing a Clarify command. The Clarify command renders hard-to-read web pages more visually accessible.

Note: ClarifyButton requires Internet Explorer version 5.0 or higher. Earlier versions do not support adding buttons to the Standard toolbar.

Install

1. Download and double-click setup.exe.

2. Restart Internet Explorer.

Use

1. Start Internet Explorer.

2. Click the Clarify button pictured above.

Note the Clarify command applies only to the current page. Navigating to another page will display the new page in its original form.

You can "unclarify" a page by clicking Internet Explorer's Refresh button, or by pressing the F5 function key.

Here are some ugly-ass Web pages for testing ClarifyButton:
