    Another Anti-Phishing program I use is PhishGuard (its free). Great for those kind of sites that are fake and give you spyware etc. Another way to put it that it prevents/warns you.

    Check and make sure your tool bars are not locked.

    Does this help.

    If you're running Windows XP SP2, in IE look under "Tools->Internet Options->Advanced" for a checkbox entitled "Enable third-party browser extensions (requires restart)". Make sure that's checked and reboot your computer.
