text: the taskbar on which one types the url is not showing. how do i get it back?   right click on the area where it used to be until a menu comes up that says, "standard buttons," "address bar," "links," "lock the toolbars," etc. make sure the "address bar" is checked. if it doesn't show up, but it says, "address" over on the side, left-mouse click it and drag it over towards the left side to see it.  if it's none of these (as in, if none of the things i said above are checked), press "f11." it should fix it up. :-)
