    I would guess this probably has been covered, was too lazy to search. Apparently google took over my address bar on Internet Explorer at my job. How do I get it back?

    Right-click on the... WTF, man...? How'd you manage to do that?!?!? :confused:

    Is it IE7 or IE6? Are you talking about the Search bar next to the address bar?

    Right-click on an empty area of the Google toolbar and uncheck it. OR, try clicking on TOOLS, then see if it's listed there, since there's no really "Address bar" choice. Otherwise, drag the Google toolbar to the right or left, and you will see the "Address."

    Which is your version of IE, though?

    You may probably have to unlock them first. Can't you uncheck the Google toolbar from the "view->toolbars" menu? :confused:

    Try putting your cursor in between the horizontal areas of the top of the window. You may have hidden it and just need to drag it open.

    Why would you want it back? It's time to move on. It left you. In time, you'll see it was best for both parties.

    Go out with your boys this weekend and blow off some steam.

    Sorry for your loss, though.
