Personalizing individual windows

Just as you can display a Web page on your desktop, you can also
display a Web page in an individual window. If you subscribe to
the Web page, it can be automatically updated on a regular basis.
For example, using this Web integration feature you can monitor
weather, game scores, stock prices, or headlines—all in the
window of your choice.

Adding a background to a window

If you select art or a Web page as a window background, set your
desktop style to Web style—or select the As Web Page option
