No the address bar is there, the web address is present however when I click and hold the mouse and drag it across the web address it is not highlighted in black like it used to. I can still right click copy and paste its just really annoying.
I did have a look at properties, appearance and advanced but didn't find anything there.
I should add that everything else highlights ok its just on the tool bar.
I also have another strange thing happen. When I am downloading a small box appears on the top right hand corner, there is nothing on the box except at the top left its got http// cannot be enlarged but it has the usual x button on the right to close.
I have also lost the internet warning concerning downloads which used to appear on the tool bar.
I hope this is clearer to you and thanks for your quick response.
