Why is my Internet Explorer Being Strange????

hjgauthier · 01-16-2008, 12:06 AM

Wow!! This is wierd. My Internet Explorer no longer has a browser window for me to enter url addresses. Anybody know why and how this happened? And more importantly, how can I get it back up?

I looked around a bit and looked in the "HELP" links. No help that I could find there.

If you got any ideas, please reply.

Thanks,
Hubert

Hi Hubert,

Are you using IE6, if so you could try this;

*Internet Explorer bar is missing*

Do method 1 first as the second option involves going into the registry and YOU REALLY DON'T want to risk getting anything wrong in there dude.

Good luck

If all else fails try switching to Firefox

I like it a lot better

Because IE knows FF is a dominating browser, your pc usage is begging for a real browser

I only mention this as I remember doing this myself...(and it's a dumb obvious thing.. lol)

Did you try looking under the "View" menu to ensure that the address bar is set to be displayed? (a little check mark beside it)

Sometimes I get clicking away and inadvertently shut something like this off. Then drives me nuts later trying to figure out what I hit.

I thought exactly what StarLab said. Try that first.

Thanks for all your replies. I have FireFox, which sometimes gets hornory, and then I switch to IE until FF stops its tantrum.
Will try those suggestions and keep you posted as to which one does the trick, if any.
