MSN browser - removing irritating left-hand side section??

[JazzFunk]

I've been using AOL since 2004, and it's frequently been slow, irritating, but also an easy pleasure to use (when it hasn't been slow, or crashed).

Recently, I decided to use MSN Explorer instead, and I've had 90% less slowdown/disconnection problems. BUT, I have this horrible bar on the left hand side of my screen that is about 2 inches thick (on a 14/15 inch monitor) and it is irritating the life out of me. It's got all these 'Mys' - "My City", "My Calendar", "My Stocks", all vertically descending, compressing my screen like faux TATE.

Can I get rid of that f*cking lefthand side border and just get a full-screen display, like AOL gave me???

Use Firefox.

MSN Browser? Is that the thing that came bundled with XP circa 2001?
Why not just use a modern browser?
