I spent about 8 hours putting this together (ok so I took a few breaks, but still I put a lot of work into it), I ported the toolbar icons from XP's IE over to OS X's IE. Right now I only created a toolbar for "icons only" preference, if I get many requests to create a "icons and text" preference...I might create one.
For those of you that use IE on a XP system, you'll know that XP's IE has a toolbar icon that makes the window fullscreen. Well I found this javascript over at IETR that resizes the window to cover the whole screen (doesn't cover the menubar though). I also found a javascript that lets you switch between windows (if you don't want to use "cmd + ~"). The magnifying glass can be configured to launch either IE's search engine or Sherlock or Watson.
I'll place it for download later today...anybody kind enough to host it? I might email it to the IETR site. I'd package it along with the IE file that needs to be modified; you'd just need to modify that file by entering your username where ever USERNAME appears (use TextEdit to modify it), place it in Home/Library/Preferences/Explorer (backup the original) and place the toolbar images folder in your documents folder.
Here's a preview pic:
