'Bout to shoot out another computer screen.. please help..

This Visa has a toolbar at the top with all the 'f' keys, escape and space..

It is a drop-down.. mostly tucked away, sometimes down and hard to get rid of.

Often when a link opens at the top of the page, this toolbar drops down and I can't close the link without 'moving' the link down on the page so the 'X' close box will work..

I have never used this bar for anything and see no need for it.. can I get rid of it somehow and get rid of the annoyance as well as free up a bit more page space? Thanks..

Right click the tool bar and chose the appropriate option?

Right click the desktop and chose Personalize, then ease of access. See if something checked there is causing the menu.

Then there is some silly thing Vista uses where it places a calculator, calendar, clock and picture viewer in a portion of the desktop (usually defaults to the right side, not the top). I can't recall the name of the utility, but it is one of the first things I turn off when I start up a new installation of Vista. To turn it off you right click some icon in the system tray.

Those are my three guesses.
