My status bar worked great till I installed service pack 2, then it started disappearing every time I closed explorer or even every time I changed directories in explorer..... found an answer in

http://www.uninets.net/~blaisdel/whistler11.htm

and worked fine, still haven't restarted my machine, but have plenty of faith!!!, hahaha

Here's a description so you don't have to follow the link:

Open Regedit (Windows Key plus R to bring up the run dialog and then type, or copy and paste Regedit and then click OK)
Locate the following Registry key and sub keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
In the right hand pane, right click and choose New | DWORD
Name the new DWORD StatusBarOther
Once created, double click the new DWORD string and give it a value of (1). Should be:
StatusBarOther REG_DWORD 0x00000001 (1)
Close the editor

From now on your Windows Explorer status bar will stay and behave itself.
