We have a HTML&Javascript -based application running in the IE. To save space
on the screnn, we switched off the statusbar via Javascript.
This worked fine with all IE Versions up to 6.0.2800. With 6.0.2900 it does
not seem to work any more.
Even if we unceck the Statusbar in the main menu, the status-bar still
reappears in IE-Windows opened by Javascript.
There seems to be some new trouble with scroll bars, too.

I believe this is one of those latest security fixes that Microsoft has
published for IE. Check MS security bulletins (or knowledge base) fo more
information. Those articles could tell which update it is and if there is
any way to overcome that without uninstalling the fix.
