I'm an idiot that doesn't use firefox to browse. but those of you in the know might be able to help me here.
on the bottom of the internet explorer page right above the bottom toolbar there is usually another bar that shows the page loading by little green bars and it says done when its done.. well thats up and gone from my page. how do i get it back?

it's not all that far removed from Nutsrape

and the thing it has over IE is TABS! they are teh win

that and a lot less security problems with Active-X and ****e, although IE adding the pop-up blocker was pretty cool

there are a few things i need IE for every so often, but like 99% of the sites i see work with Firefox just fine

Remember, there are no stupid internet explorer questions. Only stupid internet explorers.

I love how Netscape used to take 6 minutes to open and then took up 85k of memory.
