Re: IE7 Information Bar missing



Launch IE and from the Toolbar select:
Tools > Pop-Up Blocker > Pop-Up Blocker Settings
and place a check next to "Show Information Bar when a pop-up is blocked".

[Cross-posted from Setup & Deployment]
A couple of days ago, I noticed that the "Open in new tab" option was missing
from the right-click menu for links on one of my PCs. One of the suggested
solutions was to apply the defaults for security and privacy options. When I
applied these options, the information bar stopped appearing, meaning I now
can't run ActiveX when prompted, as I don't see the prompt.

I have tried the following suggestions to resolve this, but nothing has
worked so far:
- adjusting Tools/Internet Options/Security (Automatic Prompting etc.)
- OLEFix
and probably others that I can't remember. I don't want to leave me system
at a low security level, but I also want the option of running ActiveX when I
need to (e.g. Windows Update).

Any other suggestions?

WinXP SP3, IE7, latest updates applied
