How do I add the Show Desktop Icon to the Quick Launch
toolbar? It was removed and all I can find is a shortcut
that will open an explorer window to the desktop.
 
Open notepad "Start"->"Run"->"notepad" and place the following inside

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop

Next choose "File"->"Save As" and save the file to your desktop (or to
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Quick Launch) as "Show Desktop.scf". Next drag drop this inside
your quick launch area.
