[2005] Changing status text, using mousehover

[redmo]

I've been building a IE clone, and i'm putting the finishing touches on it, Does anyone know how to change the statusbar text to whatever favorite name i have the mouse over, so far i have this code.

Private Sub mnuFav_MouseHover(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles mnuFav.MouseHover
 
        tsslStatus.Text = (CStr(DirectCast(sender, ToolStripMenuItem).Text))
    End Sub

I thought using sender would work, and it does, it activates when the mouse is over F&avorite, but when i try to run the mouse over any of the other url's in the menu, nothing, the event doesn't fire at all. Would this have anything to do with the fact that i'm populating the menu at runtime?? Is there anyway around this?
