No, I mean status bar. You know, the bar at the bottom of the screen that shows what your d/l progress is and shows the addy to links. Mine used to show constantly in Explorer, now it does'nt and I can't figure out how to turn it back on and stay on.

view>status bar
works for one session

taskbar> properties> autohide off
does not work.


Your mad IT skills are slippin'.

You're the one using IE.

Mozilla Firefox, it's options, and it's various plug-in's are far more customizable.

View menu, put a checkmark next to 'Status bar'.

And you really should be using Firefox for safety.
