Can anyone tell me how to customize the Toolbar in
Explorer? If I click "View" and choose "Toolbar" all the
options "Standard buttons", "Links" and so on are greyed
(disabled). My Explorer is version 6.0.

Please help!
 
Benny,

This may be caused by iSearch toolbar. Look for the file toolbar.dll (might be in Windows\System32 folder, and unregister it). You can unregister a DLL by typing 'regsvr32 /u <path:\dllfile>' in the RUN box or Command Prompt. This unlocks the toolband and removes iSearch toolbar.

Thank you Mike!

You were right about the iSearch DLL file. Sometimes I
feel quite upset about all scripts and programs invading
my computer without my explicit permission.

Thank you once again.
