Open / Save File Dialog ?

[Josh Grameson]

There is a common Open File or Save File dialog box that is used throught
windows xp (and previous versions). There is Look In dropdown list that
allows to select a drive and in the main box you can select the folders. On
the top next to this dropdown list there are a few icons. On the left of
where the folders are displayed there are a few icons for popular folders
such as History, My Documents, Desktop, Favorites, My Network Places.

My question is how can I change these folders on the left or at least add
some other ones?
