would anyone be able to go to there c:\documents and settings\%user%\start menu folder and copy the desktop.ini contents for me. or even all users of default user should work, cheers.

%user% means ur name, u will have to show hidden files and maybe even system files too see it

cheers, but it doesnt seem as though that was the prob.
ive lost the graphic at the side of the classic menu, do u know how to get it back?

edit: it was just showing black because it was to small, i got it back now.

next time u have that prob, system restore fixes everything. today, i installed this style for stylexp, and it screwed up my IE6 icon, and i used system restore, and all&#39;s well
