    I quess I don't quite understand what you mean when you say "I don't have the option ". Are you using IE6 or an earlier version of IE?

    In IE6 this can be accomplished a couple of different ways;

    1. Right click on an empty spot on the menu bar and select Lock the Toolbars from the pop-up menu, or

    2. Click on View, Toolbars, Lock the Toolbars.

    If you are using an earlier version of IE6 I don't believe this was an option.

    HTH :)

    When you right click on the taskbar is "Lock the toolbars" an option from the pop-up menu?

    When you click on View, Toolbars is "Lock the Toolbars" an option?

    :confused:

    Glad to hear that the option is now available.

    While trying to find a solution to your problem I did a search of Microsofts Knowledge Base articles. The only article that discussed this problem stated that the locking option could not be invoked while running in full-screen mode. The solution was to return to a standard window, lock the toolbar, and then return to full-screen mode. Didn't know if this is what you were doing but thought it was worth mentioning just in case.

    :D
