    Is there any built-in interface to allow me to make an extension for explorer that sits in explorer's title bar? If not, what is the best way to hook explorer so I can put something in the titlebar?

      A Browser Helper Object[^] can be used to extend Windows Explorer. For all types of shell extensions here is an index to a series of wonderful articles - The Complete Idiot's Guide to Writing Shell Extensions - Index[^]
