The 'gold bar' referred to sounds like the Active X control facility. It usually just pops up whilst you try and access the download - keep an eye on the area just underneath your browser and when it appears, click on it and follow on screen prompts. If you don't see the bar you will have to change your security settings in the control panel. Hope this helps.
