Using IE6 and XP home. Is there a way for me to set the status bar to
always automatically appear on all of my open windows? If so, please advise
"how to." Thanks in advance, Fran
 
Do you mean you want the standard buttons bar and address to appear on your
other windows besides Internet Explorer?

Click on My Computer. Right click on menu bar. Select Standard buttons and
Address Bar.

If your status bar disappears when opening a new IE 6 browser window:

1) With (only one) IE open, click View, select: Status Bar
2) Right-click on IE's Toolbar and select: "Lock the Toolbar"
3) Hold down the Ctrl key and click the close button (upper right)

Verify that these Registry entries exist:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"Show_StatusBar"="yes"
"Show_URLinStatusBar"="yes"

[Exception]
In some cases the "Remember last window size" info becomes corrupted in the
Registry.
