Help! I've 'lost' my address box

[Frances]

I used to have a box on my screen that showed the address of what I was looking at - eg. the adress of the page on BF I was looking at - but it has vanished. Can someone tell me how to get it back please.

I have Google and Yahoo search . . .

Are you using Internet Explorer? If so, click "View" from the menus at the top, and then select "Toolbars" and then "Address Bar". (For IE6)

Hey Frances,

If you use Fire Fox , then click on View >> Tool bars >> chose the one you need sorta similar to IE ^_^ though.

Or you also could press the bottom F11.

Is it fixed?

No not fixed yet.

Brennen I had alread done as you sugggested; but no address bar appears even though there is a tick against 'address bar' in 'view'.

I don't have firefox.

Hi Frances,

I wonder if you use some search bar as google bar?

if so:

You should be able to right-click on one of the remaining toolbars, and select address bar again.
If that doesn't stick, I'd suspect one of those other search bars for being spyware (not Google's, though - Google's toolbar is good and I run it myself). I'd would run a spyware tool immediately. Source.


Go well

Might be this then:

Frances,

Do the toolbars up top take up less vertical space than they used to? You may have put one "on top" of the other. In that case its not gone so much as its just "squished". Can you take a screenshot and attach it to this thread?

[Frances]

Thank you all for your help.
I tried 'pulling' things along - and the address bar appeared!!
One of these days I may stop 'losing' things without knowing how I do it.

Many thanks again all of you.
