Good extension, so why have we rated it three stars?

CSS menu writer is a good Dreamweaver extension but it sometimes goes wrong with internet explorer 6(but hey what doesn't) and the limited number of presets(while not a problem for the more seasoned web designers, it limits the extension for newbies).

These factors lead to the average rating of this extension.
