Default Thunderbird Address Book


I would like to be able to open the Thunderbird address book as a
stand-alone application. That is to say, without having to open
Thunderbird first. If anyone knows how to do that, I'd appreciate it
greatly.

Thanks in advance,
Mike

make a copy of the icon you use to start TB. Now, right click on it
and select properties. Then under Target add to the end of it a
space, a dash, then the word addressbook, so it looks something like this:

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -adressbook
