Be carefull with folders with many files, because it may take a while to build the HTML code. I tested this on my Windows directory with 1015 files and folders and it worked well, but it took a few minutes.
The "ProgramFiles" folder is the root folder of the folder where My Web News is installed and the "Help" folder is the folder where all the readme files of My Web News are located.

I use My Special Folders mainly for watching the internet page shortcuts located in "Favorites", but it requires that this folder is well structured.
With the popup browser you can navigate a little bit with your tab keys, but its not recommended.
