It does just happen on IE, it happens on firefox and even on non-internet browsers. The bar stays on the screen and it doesnt go away, even if I switch windows.

Hi iamadoorknob

I'd suggest updating windows. From what i can see there you've got about 200mb worth of updates to do from Microsoft. I'd suggest doing those and see if they help out the situation.

Correction: It DOESNT just happen on IE...typo

just because it's not just IE --does not mean you should not "update" Windows...
ALL the browsers you use -- windows, or not... are running UNDER windows-- and it's settings. This can make you vulnerable-- even using Firefox-- or whatever.

I still havent been helped

Hi iamadoorknob, have you updated windows to the max?

If not - please do so.

A combination between video card drivers, chipset drivers and 100% windows updates will sort you out.

How do I update windows to the max?
