Where's my browser menu?!

[ANewCreature]

I don't know if the latest packet of updates to Windows 7 did this or what, but I opened up Internet Explorer (I have DSL) and all I have is the one line at the time with where I can type in the site I want - no menu and no "favorites." (I put that in quotes becasue it's not my Favorites folder,but it's the menu where I get my Favorites from and also where I can click on 2-3 other sites I have listed on it so I can just click instead of typing them in.)

There's also nothing ont he bottom of the internet window.

Could someone please help me find the menu? Thanks.

It sounds like you Downloaded IE9 ...the update browser. Your favorites are located to the right in the form of a Star. Click the star in the upper right area to view favorites.

Your address bar should be towards the left, similar location just a tad smaller

Try pressing the "F11" key and see if that works.

In I.E., right click somewhere near the top of the window and you'll see you can select from up to four bars to display. Select the ones you want. The new version you probably received may have been set to default to no bars... but fortunately it lets you change that.

Hey, thanks, that worked!

At least my parents will be glad I still have questions; they got DSL a couple months ago and their questions about the Internet are much more elentary. They love learning,t hough, which is keeping them young.
