I rely a lot on tools like the IE Developer toolbar. Recently after uninstalling IE 8 Beta 1 and returning to IE 7, the toolbar just stopped working. I could launch it, but all the options were greyed out.

It took me a while to fix this, yet the solution is embarrassingly simple. I found it on the Internet Explorer Web Development forum.

1. Go to Tools | Internet Options | Programs, and choose Manage add-ons.

2. Find IE Developer Toolbar BHO in the add-ons list and enable it.

3. Finally, restart IE for the change to take effect. And debug in IE to your heart’s content…
