For the past 30 minutes or so, I've been trying to figure out how all my toolbar icons (favorites, search, history etc..) have all gone missing. I can't seem to find something to bring them back and I don't know how. Can anyone help out here?

I'm currently using IE6 (yes, I know, outdated). When the internet page to Yahoo! opened up, I didn't see any toolbar icons. Now, the computer was already on when I started using it, so I imagine my mom might have done something. I haven't hit any hot keys or anything and I'm still struggling to find out how to get the icons back before my mother freaks out.

Right click below the address bar.
Is the toolbar enabled?

Yes it is and I still can't find anything to help me out here.

EDIT: You know what, just forget it. I'm obviously not going to get much help the way I'm doing it now. First, I made a mistake, it's not the tool bar icons I'm having trouble with, it's the favorites button, history button, etc.. but I guess you all wouldn't know that, because you all have IE8 and browsers other than IE6, which is why I'm not getting very good help. Thanks anyway.

Oh, why didn't you say the favorites button, instead of saying toolbar. :p
I thought a toolbar actually disappeared.
I think you need to look here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie6/using/howto/customizing/custombrowser.mspx#EVF

Edit: Oh and I DO have IE6, just on a different partition. I just couldn't be assed to boot to that one, just to give you an IE6 screenshot, when the popup menu is exactly the same as IE8's.
