Hiding the control box for a side bar

My BHO opens a couple of side bars (one horizontal, the other vertical); both of which automatically come with an "X" in the corner for closing / hiding the bar. We would like to be able to hide that button so that the user no longer has the option of closing the side bar (it's controlled programmatically elsewhere). Is this possible?

Hi Ben,

No, this isn't possible. That "X" is created by IE and they provide no way to control its creation. Instead, you can cancel the OnBeforeHideEx event of the bar.
