Click the favorites button then "Add to Favorites" - Thats how it is here anyway. I quite like IE8.

Don't know if you've got it back, but to get it back. Right click on the toolbar and click Favorites Bar.

I am using IE8, I also have Apple Safari, Firefox and Google Chrome installed and IE8 is far my favourite. I find it easy to use and love the facility for favourites buttons - with careful editing of the button names I have 17 buttons even on a 1280 pixel wide laptop display.

No complaints, but I still haven't figured out Space Invaders either and I first tried in 1978!

This is what your IE8 toolbar can look like with the favourites bar etc.

The pubs in Inverness have just realised that there's a 13amp plug at the back of the Space Invader machines,they have been linked-up to the gas-main until now. Confused

That's impressive,but why don't you use the favourites drop-down menu and get rid of the favourites bar altogether (or have you shown an example of what is possible ?)

I have my most used favourites as buttons, but still have the drop down menu for the others. I used the Beta-release of Apple Safari for a month or so earlier in the year and got to like the favourites buttons - I like it as shown.

Gas powered Space Invaders in Inversnecky, here in Elgin we still have peddle-power, but rumour has it they are going over to hamster-powered generators soon.

IE8 is decent... obviously once you get use to the layout.
