Views Bar Frustration

Ever since I got my Vista computer 2 months ago I've been unchecking the
"views bar" option but it eventually always comes back. Is there some trick
to doing this. I've kept the Windows Updates up to date since day one. I'm
glad Windows Mail closely resembles OE but the attempts at improvement seem
to be just that...attempts.
 
I have been having this same problem since I got this new computer with Vista
installed. I continually have to "uncheck" the Views Bar and the Search Bar
under Basic in the Window Layout Properties. I do not even restart my
computer or turn it off and these keep coming back. WHY will the not stay
away? I have been updating regularly also.

It might be a security program blocking the Registry change it needs to
make. A few, but not all, of the programs now doing this are:
Ad-aware's Ad-Watch
IBM Access Connections
McAfee VirusScan and/or Antispyware
Norton AV
Spyware Blaster
Spybot> Tools> IE Tweaks
Spybot- Teatimer
Spysweeper
Spyware Doctor
Windows Defender
Zone Alarm (free) 6.5 Reported to be fixed in later versions.

In the case of Zone Alarm 6.5 or Norton 2007 it actually has to be
uninstalled. Make sure the Windows Firewall is turned on until you
reinstall Zone Alarm.

Boot into Safe Mode with Networking and try the change.
