hey there, i have absolutely no idea when it comes to pc's! but i had yahoo
messenger installed on my pc, it kept asking me to upgrade it and after
pressing no for a week i thought stuff it ill do it, as soon as i did i
notoiced minor changes to the yahoo but it had really changed my Windows
explorer. I hate it now, i dont even have an address bar!! Is there any one
in here with a little more of an idea about this than me?? id really like to
be able to have the old explorer back, i liked having the address bar and
butons accross the toolbar instead of a flip down menu. I have now
uninstalled yahoo cause i thought that might fix my problem but it didnt. My
internet is sorta stuffing up since as well . Like sometimes it will just
freeze and ill have to end task it. Anyway if someone can understand that
any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Luka

Luke,

You might have the answer but if not, to get the address bar back:

Go to View
To Toolbars
Select Address Bar

Voila!

I agree with everyone about the new updates and/or applications we deal with
everyday. Mostly we get nothing but grief for our loyalty. XP should have
been scrapped long before it's release. The same applies to ME.

New innovations are created in the name of progress. The developer gets a
big fat bonus and gains noteriety for the crap. The customer gets gray hair,
sleepless nights, and whole lot of frustation. Also, I hate to think about
the lost eCommerce dollars sufferred during our down time.

Something else that blows my mind; why are the latest systems FORCED on us?
Is there a logical answer to that question? Escapes me. When you buy
ANYTHING except a new computer, you get to make a selection, you have
choices.

It is a dam shame a 2000.00 PC has the life expectancy of a knat because of
'progress' dying most often before the owner completely learns how to use
it.
