Address bar won't move

[ellen]

I can see the name "address..." but the space to type into
is not visible. won't drag, can't move the bars around.
I only have standard and address bar displayed, and am
using the small icons

Sounds like your toolbar is locked. Click menu
View/Toolbars then UNCHECK the "Lock the Toolbars"
option. You should now be able to move the address bar
over so you can see it.

Ellen,
Close all instances of IE except one
Right-click on the top Toolbar, uncheck: "Lock the Toolbars"
Place the cursor over the "Address" button and click (hold down)
It will change to a 4-way arrow, move or expand the Address Bar to desired
location
Right-click on the top Toolbar, check: "Lock the Toolbars"
Hold down the Ctrl key and close IE
