re: ActiveX Information Bar Saturday, October 22, 2005 at 7:50 pm Posted by Jeff (957 messages posted) Look in C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files. See if there is an ActiveX entry in here with "damaged" status. If so, delete it. See if the information bar opens below the address bar now when you go to the same website. If so, right click the bar and install. Jeff On Saturday, October 22, 2005 at 6:48 pm, Jeff wrote: >Hopefully somebody has seen this.
