    How to display download bar and bottom of the screen


    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium with IE 9. How do you get the File Download Bar or what ever they call it to be visable when you are downloading a file from a website. The bar I am talking about shows up at the bottom of the screen and it shows the name of the program file in bold letters and at the right end of the bar you have three options: "RUN" "SAVE" or ("save as)" "CANCEL" Or and "X" at the edge of the bar.

    Please download the Ubuntu ISO from this link and post a screenshot of what you see.
    (you can cancel the download)

    See if this helps.
    Open I.E.9 and select tool and then select view downloads. I seldom use I.E. so I'm not sure if it will fix your problem or not but it cost nothing to try.

    A silly question; SP-1 has been out for a long time. What took so long to get it installed?
