Hi,

Where are you looking for it?
I have WinXP, IE7 installed, and still see it in Programs > Accessories >
Accessibility > On screen keyboard.

Klaus


If you do need to recreate the shortcut in the Accessibility menu, the
path to the executable file (the Target field in the shortcut's
Properties dialog) should be

%SystemRoot%\system32\osk.exe
