Toolbar settings

[oops99]

I have A new PC with Win XP, IE6, cable modem, the
problem is, when I set the toolbars, and the Yahoo
companion toolbar where I want them, I lock the toolbars
by going to View/Toolbar/Lock Toolbar.
After I shut down the system, and then turn it back on
it always goes to the default settings on the toolbars.
Everything is there when I click view, but the companion
is unchecked, and I have to reset it.
I know this will be an easy one for someone to answer,
but it's driving me nuts!!!

Thanks in advance.

Another point:

Are you having a HP/Compaq PC? If so, it may be due to AutoTKit.exe =
util.
Internet Explorer Toolbar settings are not saved
