   [EDIT]
   You can remove the annoying AD in the left pane.
   Launch Orbit - View>>Category View,... & uncheck it.
   Otherwise..........
   You will need to edit the .XML files in a hidden folder "AdConfig"
   @C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\Orbit\[AdConfig}
   Open the XML files in notepad and remove relevant data from between
   the tags and then (File>Save). Do ALL xml files you find in AdConfig &
   Subfolders.
   You will need to make the files "read only", BUT, not by the Rclick
   option. You will have to Use CMD:cacls. And deny "everyone:w" (write).
   If you don't use cacls, the files will be Re-generated.

   I used this for awhile, until it became adware infested. User beware.

   Orbit still doesn't integrate, nor work properly, in Firefox v12. Firefox disables the add-on, stating that it is not compatible. Also the software updater is a pain in the @ss! Even though you tell Orbit to never remind you about software updates for your PC, it still annoys you about updates for your software programs.

   This type of program MAY have been desirable 12 years ago but now you don't need it in your life ~ A simple & effective way to infest your PC with ad-ware & associated garbage.
   
   Contains 'Open Candy' Ad-Ware & will attempt to hijack your homepage, why 'BetaNews' even offers this junk eludes me. ~ All user recommendations on the home page are from 2007 ~

   I have been a fan of orbit but suddenly they put many uselesss add-ons
   orbit has became so stupid,it even chose to download .htm file of the .zip i wanted to download,hell,can't it read that the address bar itself states "http://blahblahblah/ZIP"???
   and the uninstallation process is also a retarded.
   you have to go to a app data folder then delete than fcking folder even you have ran the uninstallation through the "unins000.exe"
   
   you know? I EVEN WENT TO THE FKING ORBIT WEBPAGE JUST TO KNOW HOW TO STOP ORBIT FROM BUGGING ME(later is that app data folder which is bugging)
   
   i read the uninstallation guide and YOU KNOW WHAT???
   THE GUIDE ONLY SEEMS APPLIES TO WINDOWS XP AND IT DOESN'T EVEN STATE THAT IT'S FOR XP,THE GUIDE CALLS ITSELF A "GUIDE".NOTHING ELSE.IM USING 7 AND I CAN'T GET RID OF ORBIT UNTIL I FOUND THE ****ING FOLDER BY CHECKING EACH OF EVERY FOLDER.
   
   ORBIT IS TOO PRIMITIVE,ORBIT HAS TO KNOW THAT 7 AND VISTA HAS BEEN RELEASED...YEARS AGO(everyone knows it,damn orbit)AND FILE DIRECTORIES FOR XP,VISTA,7 ARE ALL DIFFERENT
   
   I WAS GONNA CHOOSE -1000 RATING BUT TOO BAD I COULD'NT
