But did you use the the <ALT><TAB> to cycle through the running applications on that workspace? If FF is still running, you should be able to see it there and bring it to the foreground. I've never experienced the problem you describe. Have you gone through all your preference settings? Maybe there's some odd thing there that has an effect. I can't see anything though. Hmmm... This may be a stupid suggestion, but I'll say it anyway. Are your screen resolutions switchable? When running a lower resolution, part of the workspace, and so the panel, is out of the viewport. Moving the mouse to bring the rest of the workspace back into view may show the missing icon on part of the panel that was offscreen. > > Jim > <snip> HTH -- Bill
