Which program are you trying to add to the quick launch? Which method was
used, drag to or Send to from the All Program's group?

Why add a "program" to the QuickLaunch Toolbar? One doesn't "Add Programs to
the QuickLaunch Toolbar", he adds SHORTCUTS to programs.

Let's face it, Vista still has more than it's share of bugs. IE 7 tends to
crash also, if one visits standards-based Web sites.

I tried both Drag n drop and the "add to quick launch" in the menu, and I got
the same problem.

If your toolbar is locked, try unlocking it then drag the shortcut to it
again and see if that works. Which program is this again?

I just tried unlocking the toolbar and then draging theshortcut into the
quick launch bar, still no luck.

It's the same for every program.

Is this an upgrade or clean install of Vista? If it is an upgrade, it might
very well some glitch. Have you also tried this under another account?

It's a clean install, and the problem can be reproduced in other accounts as
well..

I did another clean install total, it appears that the problem's there
before I even install any program. Could it be one of those driver control
shell or programs that caused the problem?
