How make more than one Quick Launch area?

I have about 150 items in my Quick Launch area and, occasionally, the order
in which they appear gets scrambled. It appears that the fix is to change
their labels with numbers before the name of the icon. I don't want to do
this - and would like to try sub-dividing the icons into logical subgroups.
One group for disk utilities, one for graphics, etc. This might be more
manageable. Can someone tell me how to do this? Thanks........

You need to open Windows Explorer and create a new folder structure for the sub groups. Create a parent folder called Toolbars and then sub folders for each sub group with an intuitive name. Move all of the shortcuts to the proper sub folders. (This new folder structure can be created anywhere on the hard drive).

Once this is complete, go to the Desktop, right click the Taskbar and select Toolbars/New Toolbar. Navigate to one of the sub folders and click OK. The new toolbar will be placed on the Taskbar.
Drag the new toolbar and drop it on the Desktop.
Now drag the new toolbar to the quick launch toolbar and drop it there.

Repeat this new toolbar process for each of the sub category folders you created.

No shit?

Anyone with 150 items in the Quick Launch area is probably a moron.

....and I use every on of them. If you have nothing good to say, keep it to
yourself.
