Strange Toolbar Behavior

the google search pane is now up by the ie7 address bar. i no longer can access any google setings or any other options. when i click "view""toolbars" google is not there!!!! i have uninstalled google and reinstalled to try and fix this problem but, nothing has changed.
any suggestions. lartomar

use a different tool bar?

or just don't use ie7, use firefox ;)

i guess ie7 is the one i'm most familar and comfortable with, i'm self taught and like to stick with the familiar. i came to this site after i did a google search. as i reviewed you faq's i realized that this site is way above my level, it appears you deal primarily with web pages. i would think that a site as advanced as this would have a better answer than to swith to firefox and any way how do you know that ie7 is the problem .

because your talking to a elite gamer and also a semi programer.

and from past experience i can tell you that 90% of all problems relating to internet connections dropping, programs not working right, or games not working at all are all related to the issue that you have ie7 installed on your computer.

thank you

I think that this is a function of the new IE 7. It is automatically included as part of the IE software. I do not know of a way around this at the current moment. Like referenced above, only thing I can suggest is getting a new browser. I for one do not like what happened in the new release of IE so I switched to firefox and have found it very easy to use. There are also numerous third party plug-ins and add-ons that you can get so I would recommend that.

thanks j

I dont find any problem.. May be you may facing it...

I use firefox frequently...

Firefox is definately the way to go. IE doesn't work too well for me when I'm using alot of resources.
