Hi I ve got the usual menu bar etc above , then below them is a white bar with ........ int exp is currently running with add ons disabled
try as I might I can t get add ons enabled I go to u tube and the vids wont play ( i dare say that is related as they play in firefox ok )
I go to tools and see the drop down "manage add ons " but the letters are white and the link is dead.
My home page is the yahoo sign in page but now when I bring up int exp I get a page with this written on it..........
Internet Explorer is currently running without add-ons All Internet Explorer add-ons, such as ActiveX controls or toolbars, are turned off. Some webpages might not display correctly. To continue to your home page, click the Home button. To browse using add-ons, close Internet Explorer and then start it again. Check for the latest Windows updates. How do browser add-ons affect my browsing experience?
I try that, click off the browser and turn on again but Im still left with add ons disabled
the switch off seems permanent, I can t figure out how to turn them on again !!
thanks for any comment

Are you clicking on the Internet Explorer icon on your Desktop or via the Quick Launch? If so, try using the the icon in your Start > All Programs menu.
If that solves your problem, it would indicate a corrupt short cut(s). Return back to the icon in All Programs > Right click > Copy > Paste to Desktop (and Quick Launch if required). Might be easier to delete the corrupt ones first.
Hope it works for you.

Thanks, you must be a computor genius you ve figured it out in one
the quick start up was just the same, then I went to the all programmes and launched from there,
Bingo, no white bar below the menu bar, I went to U tube and the videos all worked
thats it, there must have been some corruption making the desk top icon thanks again for your help,

Ha ha . . . I've been called many things in my time but never a computer genius! Thanks for the compliment, but not necessary as I most certainly am not.
Pleased to have helped though

Just a quick note to second the thanks and praise! I was having a similar issue which was really doing my head in, but your advice saved me!
Think mine may have been caused by installing firefox 3 and setting it as default browser, which messed up my quickstart shortcut, although this may be totally unrelated??!!
Either way, alls well now so thanks again.
