Issues

The MSN Toolbar at times may be missing from its location, below the address bar of the web browser. The problem may be with the web browser settings, confusion with the location of other toolbars, and locked toolbar settings. These issues however, can be resolved easily by adjusting the settings of the browser in order to accommodate the toolbar.
Upgrade Issues
-
If the toolbar is missing or was never present during the time the web browser was first used, then the browser should undergo overall system upgrades. This upgrade will affect the current web browser settings and install the MSN Toolbar. Said upgrades will take effect once the computer is restarted, and from there the browser will show the toolbar.
Display Issues
-
When the toolbar has been installed and begins to disappear occasionally, you should check out the web browser settings and see which toolbars were added and currently occupy the spaces for the MSN Toolbar. Have these toolbars unchecked and removed, and enable the MSN Toolbar on the checklist. Once the changes are selected, all open browsers should be closed, and the toolbars unlocked. Restarting the browser will automatically enable the toolbar at its usual place, and would start functioning properly again.
