If you hold down shift when you type (jp mode) it will temporary imput halfwhith alphnumaeric (normal english, kinda) instead of what was selected （most likely hiragana) This is great if you dont want to switch imput modes just to type a web address (it uses all caps though!)
if you click the little "v" arrow thingy in the language bar it will give the option of settings. From there slect the IME and click properties. There you can set the default imput to hiragana, instead of alphanumeric, as well as other stuff.This is XPpro though, pro has a lot of nice language features home doesnt like a dictionary and hand writing analysis.

Hm it doesn't really seem to work. I have Home edition though confused
My personal computer has XPhome but its busted so I'm using the family computer. I was surprised at all the language goodies in XPpro.^^
As a side note, If you're runing Firefox (if your not, there is a download link in my sig) you can download an excellent sidebar extension to allow kanji and word look up. Its called Moji. (Be careful though, you have to install the dictionaries or it won't work!)
