Re: NOTHING WORKS RE: MenuBar has dissapeared in IE7

My IE7 worked perfect till a little flag appeared and urged me to up grade to
IE8. the bigger and better thingy. Well I clicked the button and waited with
baited breath for bigger and better things to appear. But alas, Wrong Move
!!! BIG MiSTAKE !!! At the end of the Installation process a notice appeared
telling me that installation could not be completed as I was running XP and
needed a Patch. Well the good people at Microsoft would not put me crook ,
would they? Install the patch and all will be roses. That was when the faeces
hit the ventilation system. IE8 would not load, IE7 runs in a fashion with
out tool or menu bar, I have tried everything and looked every where, no
luck. All sites at Microsoft tell :' Go to "Toolbar" select "Menu" . For
Heavens sake I DON'T HAVE A TOOLBARor MENU BAR.
Will now uninstall all related Items with IE7 and in future run either
Firefox or Safari. Had enough with of the crap.
