Lost/missing download button in Winamp Browser

[Jokis]

I have searched this topic on the forums and on the Internet, through Google, for the past hour or two. I have also reinstalled the program and downgraded a few times to a slightly earlier version and I'm quite adament that its either been removed [unlikely as its still being advertised on Winamp.com] or disabled or not working on my computer.

My screen looks like this. Obviously you see the slight gap where the download button would be. I think this might be caused because of 2 issues -

1) Internet Explorer

I am using the latest IE 7 - but to be honest I dont use it, it just gets automatically updated whenever Windows Update does it search for it every now and then

2) Windows Vista

I think it's also could be a Windows Vista issue. But I dont know why it appears to only affect me, unless everyone hates the browser and/or does use Windows Vista - which I would understand (Vista, I mean). I have disabled UAC long time ago, or whatever its called. I am the administrator - well actually I am the only profile logged into my computer.

Also, no. I have never seen the download link before - I have actually become fed up with the total intergration of WMP with Vista that I needed something else to try and I remember seeing it before (the download button) back in my XP days. I'm pretty sure it's a Vista thing...

Anyways, has anyone seen this before. Do you know how to fix this? Or am I stuck manually going to the website url to download a free mp3 of the day or using a Download-All plugin for Firefox or something?

I have finally tried searching for plugins that may fix this or alternate skins other then the Bento that offer the browser bar - but to no luck. Yes, both the normal and Large bento do the same thing.

Thanks in advance, this has totally been bugging me for several hours now.

it was removed to my knowledge and i can't remember if there's a hack to get it re-enabled.

Thank you for your quick reply: I had that feeling too and I am sad to hear about it but I can kind of understand if its true - I guess if it's gone on your end too then there's not much to worry about then. I think I've definently missed a few official versions with Bento so it's easy to understand how I'd miss that. I did check the changelog and I couldnt find anything but perhaps they encoded it in techno-mumbo-jumbo and not like "download" or "download button" which I was looking for.

Anyways, if that's the case maybe I'll just goto sleep and get some rest and not get hung up about it - its not a really a big deal, it was just super convenient and just really bugged me because I thought something was wrong with my computer.

Thank you and goodnight - and thanks in advance for anyone else if they share their opinion before this thread falls past the page 1 vortex.

Shhh... don't tell anyone....

%ProgramFiles%\Winamp\Skins\Big Bento\xml\player-normal-sui.xml
%ProgramFiles%\Winamp\Skins\Bento\xml\player-normal-sui.xml

Remove download="0" from the end of the 3rd line :-)
