Internet Explorer Command Bar
You can customize the toolbars that offer common commands in Internet Explorer so that the commands you use most often are included and the ones you have no use for are removed. 1Open IE from the Desktop and be sure the Command bar is displayed. If the Command bar is not displayed, right click in. Right-click the title-bar, the top-most strip across Internet Explorer, to see the pop-up menu. The pop-up menu lists the four optional bars: Menu Bar, Favorites Bar, Command Bar, and Status Bar.
The new version of IE, Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) features hidden menu bar (or also known as the classic menus that Windows users familiar with, normally located on the top of the window) where the classic menu bar is hidden out of display to allow more space and screen estate for web pages. If you’re unfamiliar with the IE7 new default user interface layout without menu bar, and want to show and display the classic menus with “File”, “Edit”, “View”, “Tools” and “Help” options as in IE6 (Internet Explorer 6) where most users get used to, you can unhidden the classic menus bar temporarily or permanently.

If you want to display and show the menu bar on top of the IE 7 window, on top of the navigation toolbar (or address bar), there is another tweak and trick that needs to be done. Users will need to create a new registry key or modify the value of the registry key ITBar7Position in the following Windows registry branch:
Internet Explorer Command Bar Favorites
[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerToolbarWebBrowser] “ITBar7Position”=dword:00000001Internet Explorer Customize Command Bar
Launch RegEdit (Registry Editor) and simply navigate to the above registry branch, and create a new DWORD registry key. Input the name of the key as ITBar7Position, and then double click on it (or right click on it and select Modify) and input the value 1.
Alternatively, you can download the following IE7_menuontop registry hack file (link dead) which contains 2 files: ie7_menubarontop.reg and ie7_menubarontop_uninstall.reg. After downloading, extract the zip file, close all Internet Explorer’s windows, and double click on ie7_menubarontop.reg file or right-click on it and select Merge. Answer “Yes” to the warning message. Launch IE now and the menu bar will be on top of everything, just right below window’s title bar. Note that most third party toolbar such as Google Toolbar, Yahoo! Toolbar, Windows Live Toolbar, Alexa Toolbar and etc will also move above of the navigation bar, but below the menu bar. If you want to undo the setting of menu bar on top, simply delete the above registry key, or click on ie7_menubarontop_uninstall.reg.
