Re: Quick Launch

1. Right-click a blank area on the Taskbar, scroll your mouse pointer up the menu that appears, to 'Toolbars', and on the sub-menu that pops up, click to put a check next to Quick Launch.

Sorry if this has been covered here a million times, I just can't figure it out.

This computer is new to me, old machine ran Win 98se.

I always had a one touch button on lower r side of taskbar to open IE or OE, Cannot figure ouot how to do this on Win XP machine.

Also, like a lot of people, I HATE change. I could not get used to the look and feel of IE 7, so went back to 6, which suited all of my needs. I read that there is a way to make IE 7 looks like 6, but am I better off just using the older version?

Lastly, so I won't have to keep asking dumb questions here, how aboout a point in the right direction for a site or two that may be helpful to someone like me that has never used Win XP.

I hate to say it, but I've already made all the changes I could find (classic start menu, etc) to get this thing looking like what I was used to.

Thanks, Todd McD
