I have used the toolbar before on this same machine, then after an update for one of my programs, it is now impossible to view the toolbar.  Add-Remove shows it installed.  When I remove it and reinstall it, I get a page that says that the toolbar has been install and a red curved arrow showing me where it should be.  I have shut down TrendMIcro PC-cillian, Counterspy, SpySweeper and Zone Alarm Pro 6.0 and still no luck.  I have allowed Active X and scripting.  I have checked and unchecked where it says lock toolbars when you right click on a toolbar.  I can see Google Toolbar showing in that same dialogue box so I have checked and unchecked that with no resolution.  I have added www.google.com and http://toolbar.google.com to safe sites. I have also resized the toolbars in case it is hiding somewhere.

 

Any other troubleshooting suggestions.  I am using Win 2K fully patched. I use Internet Explorer 6.x.   I have scanned for virus's worms, rootkits, etc.

 

Thanks for any suggestions

You know, I usually go through most of my programs at the same time looking for updates, so to be honest, I can not say which one may have caused it.  But I just now thought of something else, I have Microsoft updates available, but now I can not install them either.  Is this a scripting problem or some other control this might be prevented from running due to a security issue?
