Title Bar problems

I have recently installed Combined Community Codec pack 2008-09. Since then, when I open my browser, the Title Bar is blocking off the minimize icon. Also when I open a smaller window The Title Bar is not displaying properly. I am using Windows XP SP3 with IE7. I am using the Codec Pack in conjunction with Windows Media 11 to allow me to play DVDs that I have bought from a store. Can anyone help?

What happens if you double click on the title bar? Do you see the three buttons (Minimize/Restore & close) then?

Can you clarify this, how is it displaying?

Sorry Kenoken,

Could you keep your responses to the thread, I've quoted your message below for others to see...

Double clicking does fix the problem until I open the browser next time. Two things are happening:1> !st click turns minimize/restoredown/close to black and white;2> 2nd click minimizes the window, Problem reoccurs next time I open IE7. Any idea how to fix it permanently or can you suggest a good program that I can download for free that would enable me to watch DVDs that I have bought in the shops. I may have to delete the the old codec pack if that is the only way to fix the problem permanently.
I don't use IE but I don't think the issue is with your codec pack, I'd suggest waiting for someone who does use IE7 to let you know how to set the default window.

Could you answer my second query regarding how the title bar shows up in a smaller window?

title bar problems

Sorry. Still blindering my way round. The Title Bar in a smaller window is cut of at both ends. Left clicking on it once fixes the problem but annoying and keeps on happening.

No problem, as I said I don't use IE7 so probably best waiting for someone else's input.
