I'm going to throw another one into the pot,,,
any one know how to change the open/save dialog boxes file view to a
different default eg. icons
There's a software package I have heard of that replaces the open/save
dialog boxes - but how about just changing Microsofts itself

It's not easily changed -- no registry setting -- it's hardcoded:List View for everything except 'My
Pictures' which defaults to thumbnails.
