How to Hide a Wii Toolbar

Online searching and Web surfing is quick and easy with the Wii Internet Channel's user-friendly browser developed by Opera. The Internet Channel can be downloaded from the Wii Shop channel at any time at no cost to the user. Once it is downloaded and initialized, the "Start" menu on the home page allows you to search, view favorite websites or type in a specific web address. The Internet Channel also includes a toolbar that allows you to zoom in, refresh pages and perform other basic navigational functions. The toolbar settings can be set to auto-hide when not in use while browsing.
