Hi. I run Win ME with IE 6 Sp1. Recently I have started
receiving a message upon starting IE that I am in
Compatibility Mode (and that not all features are
enabled). I tried doing a search in IE Help, but came up
blank. Anyone have any idea what it is and how to turn it
off? What are the other "modes?"

Thanks,

samee
 
Make sure the message is not from the Operating system.
