Cannot active the address bar in "My Computer". Have tried "view"
"toolbars" address bar is checked (the word address does not even appear
so it can be expanded. XP is in Classic view. Under folder options the
box is checked to display full path in address bar. Lock toolbar is not
checked. Any ideas? --
