I don't believe you are talking about quick launch. I don't know any sure cure unless you restore to an earlier date. You can try a few other things. Open a program and at the top (Title Bar) right click it and click Maxmize and than click Minimize. Something else with a program open to maximize hold down on the Alt Key First and than the Spacebar and press N Try My Documents. It should Minimize to the Taskbar. You can also open a few things and click on Default. If you have changed your Icons in All Programs and click Default they will also change to Default. That's just a minor detail.

Toolbar wasn't locked. Whats a vertical drag bar? And how would I drag open the address bar if I don't have or see one? Sorry, I'm obviously very inexperienced and confused. I do remember moving a "separator" to inactive because I couldn't see it or know what it did. So I've put it back but still dont see anything there. (By the way, because I didn't see it I added it again and the word separator went in again.But still don't see anything.) Please don't laugh. I'm really trying.Thanks, Sandy

No, but I found it as View>Status Bar. Your hint led the way though. Thanks! Where might one find 'menu' with Firefox...or is there one?

I have the incredimail problem. I see that incredimail's approach was to suggest that users remove the latest update which seems like a poor solution. I know it is temporary, but it sounds like incredimail doesn't have a big staff. I'm not sure the other issue you all mention is a loss of the Tiles view (don't know the name of that view), but that's what happened to me. I couldn't switch to that view via the Win Key as expected. However, after going to the remove program area and getting rid of some old bloatware, the Tiles View returned.
