I've installed Utilu IE Collection under Windows 7 64-bit, but am unable to successfully run IE6 (specifically, "Internet Explorer 6.0 (6.00.2900.2180)"). I haven't tried other versions of IE from the package, so their behavior is unknown.
It starts up fine, but the address bar isn't shown. (Attempted to post image, but I'm a newbie on SU and it wouldn't let me. Can be found here.)
View->Toolbars shows 'Address Bar' already selected. If I try to (de-)select Address Bar in that list, it crashes:

That's not all that's wrong ('Search' pane has no contents as well, probably more), but it's the most glaring problem.
I've seen some allusions to a registry change needed to fix this, but haven't been able to find any details. Anybody?
I'm running the latest version of the collection, 1.7.0.6.
