Windows Forum / Internet Explorer / Setup / July 2008Why does hovering no longer change my status bar?
July 1, 2008 Hello, all, Until a few days ago, whenever I hovered the cursor over a link, the IE6 status bar would show the URL of that link. For some reason it has stopped working. Now when I hover over a link, the status bar either says, "Done" or it's blank except for an icon. Seeing the full URL before you click it is very handy and can alert you to a URL that is suspicious. Any ideas on how I can return the status bar to its full potential? Is this a problem with the Registry? Thanks from JohnnyG P.S. I use Internet Explorer version 6, SP-2 on a Windows XP machine. > July 1, 2008 > > Hello, all, > > Until a few days ago, whenever I hovered the cursor over a link, "a link"? Post a sample URL.

Yes, just a plain old link. An example is http://www.google.com. Incidentally, it works just fine using Fire Fox 2. > > "JohnnyG" <JohnE...@gmail.com> wrote in message > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > Yes, just a plain old link.

BTW any possibility you could use a real newsreader or stop using Quoted Printable with whatever it is that you are using? --- |
