I need help on internet explorer browser
« on: August 22, 2007, 08:32:03 am »
My prob is that I cannot see my adress bar. Yes it has a check by it, but It's scrunched up all the way to the right of my screen, so I can't type in anything. I try dragging it sideways but nothing will drag. What the hell is wrong? I don't even know how it got that way. Any suggestions?

I think you have to drag it down. I think I did that once and I spent a long time getting it back

The complete fix: get Firefox.

Yea I tried dragging, but there's nothing to drag on. I'll just download a new browser I guess. God, cpus are so complicated.

Right click on it and uncheck "lock toolbar."

Then you should be able to drag it back down.

another prob. my background isn't showing up on my desktop. I go to my preferences to choose, but it's totally unclickable. Is it locked somehow too? even when i assign a picture to be used as a background, it doesn't show up. it's just blue.

Try to right-click on your desktop then go to properties.
On the "Desktop" tab, go to "Customize Desktop", then to the "Web" tab.
Try unchecking the boxes there, if they are checked. ("Lock desktop items" or "My Current Home Page")
