i am having a problem---the browser back-button disappears and then to get to
earlier pages you have to minimize and come back again quite inconvenient

i was referred to a microsoft knowledge base article but that stopped at a
version earlier than 7 have you experienced this and if so what was the
solution

could you direct me to the correct forum in case this is not the right one

thank you

You're running IE8, not IE7, in Windows 7, Amir.

Did you upgrade to Win7 or is it a new computer?

Is it Win7 64-bit?

Tips for solving problems with Internet Explorer (Win7)
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/w...ernet-Explorer

1. Does the behavior persist if you start IE in No Add-ons mode?

=> Start | (All) Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Internet
Explorer (No add-ons).

Troubleshooting and Internet Explorer’s (No Add-ons) Mode [Applies to IE7 &
IE8 in all OSS]

2. Does the behavior persist if you Reset IE Advanced settings (RIES)?

3. What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)?

4. Has a(nother) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on this
machine (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?

NOTE: MS will be closing this and all other public newsgroups in the near
future. MS Answers forums are already supporting Win7 users; see
