| Oh! You're right. I would never have even thought having the Folders pane
| expanded would make a difference. I've had that open pretty much since I
| first installed.
|
| When I mentioned I'd used many other machines with Vista and they never
had
| this problem they have all been fresh installs with no customisation
which I
| guess would not have that pane enabled.
|
| Thank you very much for clearing that up.
