EE-triever
did not appear after I installed it.
If EE-triever does not appear:
- Right-click in the toolbar area and select the toolbar's label
to turn it on. Or use Explorer's View menu, choose Toolbars, and
select the Maxim EE-triever toolbar.
- In the toolbar menu, you want to turn on Maxim EE-triever but
in some systems, the toolbar may be called called "Radio"
(it's an Explorer bug). The last "Radio" choice should
be EE-triever.
- Windows 2000, XP Professional, and NT users: You must be logged
on as the Administrator or logged on with Administrator rights
in order to install the Maxim EE-triever Toolbar. You can turn
off these rights once the installation is complete.
