Anyone else have this problem w/Outlook Express?

Occasionally, all of my toolbar buttons will disappear for no reason. When this happens, I have to go back and manually add back the toolbar buttons I want for both e-mail and newsgroups. This is very inconvenient

The following article may be of some help to you...

Toolbars disappear from Message Composition windows or the main OE window

Have you either knowingly or unknowingly downloaded Hotbar?

Well $#!T !!! I'll have to check that out. It usually occurs on my work pc so I'll double check it monday when I go back in.

Well... that registry update did change the main Outlook buttons, but did not replace my missing toolbar buttons. I guess I'll just have to do it manually

I replaced the buttons manually and on the date of the last post to this topic, I also backed up the Identities registry key. The buttons just disappeared AGAIN for no reason while OE was open. I then closed Outlook Express and applied the backed-up registry entry. Sure enough, that fixed it. This is still very annoying though MS needs to include this in their next IE update.
