missing toolbar

[susan.hatch]

I read thru the explanation on usuing F11 to get the missing toolbar
back but it didn't work for me. And it sounds like I have been going
thru the same scenario that the other writer has. F11 worked for that
person....can someone find another way for me to get the internet
Explorer toolbar back? The one that says File, View, Tool, etc.

I have windows xp

I think i have IE6 but don't have the Help toolbar to be sure.

Hi Susan

Try the following and see if it helps:

Restore Missing Toolbars, Menu bar in Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer

Reset Internet Explorer's Toolbar Menu
http://toolbar.google.com/fixmenu
or.

or

If still no joy, work through the steps here:

Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm
Be aware, your Anti-Virus won't detect all types of warez, Trojans, malware,
worms, etc., and neither can other adware or spyware related programs such
as AdAware and SpyBot. They don't have the proper definitions. They must
also be run in Safe Mode with Hidden Files enabled in order to fully scan
all files. Even if you have run such programs and nothing shows up, it does
not mean your system is clean. It takes a series of programs to fully clean
your machine. Some very aggressive and damaging variants of malware can
replicate themselves repeatedly, or mutate, if not removed properly.

Hope this helps.

F11 is only a toggle for View-Full Screen so may not be relevant,
particularly of you have only one toolbar missing.

Have a look here and see if resetting the toolbars helps:

Yes, if you have XP, then you have IE6
