I have internet explorer 6.0 sp2 and seem to be missing the media button that
brings up the media bar??

A friend has a computer a year older than mine and he has it?

Why is mine missing? How do I get it and make sure I have the most up to
date version

To help improve security, Media Bar has been removed from Internet Explorer
6. For this preliminary release of SP2, however, the Group Policy settings
for Media Bar have not been removed. Because Media Bar is no longer
available, these settings will not function.

Although you can no longer use Media Bar, you can listen to digital media by
downloading and using Microsoft Windows Media® Player 9 Series.

Thank you. When I read this last week it made sense. However, I was helping
a friend of mine on her computer and saw that on her version of IE, 6.0,
which was bought just 6 months ago (mine 1.5 yrs) She HAD the media bar. Any
reason for this.
