If you are talking about the Address Bar of your browser window, then simply right click the toolbar and click "Address Bar" from the menu that appears. This is a shorcut.\nThe standard procedure is:\n- Click "View" on the menubar.\n- Select "Toobars".\n- Click "Address Bar".\n\nIf you still cannot see the Address Bar, it maybe because it is dragged out of sight to the right side. Go to View > Toolbars, and disable all toolbars except Address Bar. Now enable the other toolbars one by one. If you find that the Address Bar disappears on enabling a particular toolbar, see to the left and right of this toolbar. You must see a toolbar handle in any one side. Click and drag this handle downwards.\n\nIf you cannot edit your home page (in Internet Options), then you probably have malicious software.

The chinese are filtering content on the Google server, kindoff. \n\nWhat you can try is to BYPASS  them.\n\nIn your address bar type this  (removed)\n\nNow once the page loads, you will see a bar similar to the address bar having htp://lycos.com written. Edit that bar and type www.google.com and press enter. \n\nOr else if you dont want to do so click this link .( IT MAY WORK or else you will have to do the complete procedure given above)\n\n( removed)\n\n\nADDITIONAL DETAILS.\n\nNone of it worked. Thats really surprising. Anyway I have removed the links if you need them do let me know.

You need to type the complete website, including http://\n\nFor example,  www.yahoo.com won't work, but http://www.yahoo.com will.

What you need to do is open the file "C: &#92; WINDOWS &#92; system32 &#92; drivers &#92; etc &#92; hosts" in Notepad or any editor.  You will see the line:\n\n127.0.0.1       localhost\n\nUnderneath this, add another entry with 127.0.0.1 and your mydomain.xxx.  Use the localhost one as a guide.  If http://localhost:8080 works, and you want http://xyz:8080 to work, add the line:\n\n127.0.0.1       xyz\n\nOnce you do this, it should work.\n\n\n(sorry I had to put spaces in the path, it didn't look right otherwise because it changed the &#92; to the hex value)

On Windows Internet Explorer go to Tools. Then Internet options at the bottom of the menu. Then Content tab, Auto Complete. Check box on "Use Auto Complete for" "forms". Checking Web Addresses box gets those dodgy sites off your address bar. God bless this function, it gets me out of so much trouble.

Depending on your operating system, i.e. Windows XP, you will go to the top of your internet explorer page (if using IE) and click on tools.\n\n When the menue drops down, click on properties. Next, at the top of that dialogue box, you can add the URL (name of the site you want) in the box. --- This being the Home Page section of the dialogue box.\n\n Make sure it is followed by the top level domain such as .com .net or .org etc. \n\nClick apply at the lower right corner of the dialogue box and your there. \n\nWindows will automatically add the http://www to the begining of your address so you dont have to add that unless you want.

right click on the toolbar of internet explorer on the back or home or whatever button, or even where it used to be, and make sure the address bar option is checked off (if you are using internet explorer that is)

Make sure the domain is correct. There may be a drop down box with different options, so mess around with those until you find the right one.

In the toolbar goto Tools\nThen internet options\nThen choose the tab general\n\nThe top text box will let you change which page loads when you open internet explorer.  Type the address you want to go to.  Or if your looking at it on the page, choose current.

The address bar is the long white box at the top of the Internet Explorer window. On this page it will have an address in it that starts http://answers.yahoo.com....\n\nJust erase what's in there now, type the address/URL that you want to go to, and hit the Enter key on the keyboard.

Try clicking Start, Run, and type in "cmd" without quotes, then click OK. Then type "ipconfig /flushdns" without quotes and hit ENTER. This flushes your local DNS cache.\n\nDNS is a way for your computer that google.com = 72.14.207.99. It translates internet names into IP addresses. The DNS cache is a local copy of all the DNS requests your computer has made to DNS servers, which saves time so it won't have to request it next time.\n\nBe aware: the answer below (IE history etc) will not clear your DNS cache. It only clears History, cookies and IE settings.

In internet explorer, click the "view" link at the top of the browser. Choose "toolbars" and make sure address bar is ticked.

you could add the address to your hosts file or in the restricted sites zone in IE properties\n\nas for the timer thing youd need a seperate program to do that (quite easy to write i imagine)

In the example above, "yoursever" is your website.  For example, if you own billybob123.com, you would replace "yourserver" with "billybob123.com" in the above example, so it would look like http://billybob123.com/catalog/inst..."  Don't try to click on that link, it won't go anywhere.  :-)\n\nI think the above example is assuming you do have your own domain.  I'm not sure what to do if you're using something like geocities or your ISP's personal webspace.  If the program name indicates what it does, you might not be able to.  If you adminster a domain, and need help, whoever gives you tech support should be able to help.  If you don't....  I don't know what to tell you, but I do wish you luck!
