Internet explorer and Win XP

[Guest]

Hi,
I am using MS WinXP Pro upgraded with SP1 and SP2, while browsing through IE (in non Kiosk mode) and press <ctrl+n> to open a new window the status bar of the new window vanishes automatically unless I go to VIEW and then click the STATUS BAR again. Any solution will be highly appreciated.

Hi

Try this - if you haven't already done so:

Open Windows Explorer, enable the Status Bar, then go to Tools>Folder Options>View and click on 'Apply to All Folders'. This will apply to Internet Explorer as well.

Didn't work for me but (so far) the fix at

This only occurred with SP2 installed.
