Re: Favorites drop-down menu
I have the exact same problem as Clare had, but I've already unchecked the
option you've outlined below and it didn't solve my problem. What else could
be causing the menus to NOT drop down? I'm running IE6.0.2900.2180 (with
service pack 2) on Windows XP single-user computer. Thanks.

Pointing to the wrong Favorites directory?

BTW if you do not see the chevrons that the OP
included in the symptom description you do not
have the same problem and should start a new
thread with your own details only.
