Acquisition: Disappearing 'Browser'

Hi,
I use Acquisition's filter option quite heavily so I sometimes minimise the Acquisition 'Browser' (similar to the iTunes 'Browser'). This gives me more space to see my search results when I use multiple filters.
However, when I once used enough filters to span the entire 'Search Results' pane, it covered the search results. As usual, I completely minimised the 'Browser' to see some results. The problem now is that I cannot invoke the 'Browser' to come back. In fact, I can only see the lower half of the (artist/album/audio bitrate/etc) bar.
iTunes uses '#B' to invoke the 'Browser' but Acquisition doesn't have a shortcut.
Is there any way of restoring these settings?
I have already tried reverting to the default search appearance, re-installing, moving the 'Acquisition' folder from ~Library>Application Support to the desktop but had no success.
Here is a link to the appearance of my Acquisition search window: sendspace.com/file/g9s0oi
Please help!

If there is a Browser menu option but it doesn't have a keyboard shortcut, you could create one using the Keyboard Shortcuts preference settings in the System Preferences>Keyboard & Mouse panel.

Unfortunately there is not a menu option for the Acquisition Browser.
In addition, the program runs perfectly in a different user account, on the same computer so it looks to be localised to my settings.
Still not sure how to fix it though.

What happens if you change the resolution of your screen - does it pull the window back into view?
If not, you are going to either have to delve into the plist files for Acquisition using e.g. PList Editor from the Developer Tools, or delete them altogether.

I don't think I explained myself well enough.
I can see the whole Acquisition application window but within Acquisition, the 'Browser' (like the iTunes 'Browser') is inaccessible.
See the link in my original post for screen-shots of the problem.

FIXED!!
What a ridiculous solution! I merely re-sized the window to be smaller, using the corner tab and this seemed to reset the little grabber for the Browser.

Actually, it was more because I didn't notice that you had posted a link to your image(s) and to be honest, I wouldn't have downloaded them anyway as I would be wary of downloading a zip file posted by someone at a forum (it would be much better if you posted the images to a server and used img tags to embed them in your post).
Anyway, glad you got it fixed.
