where are my common tasks

go to the folder options listed in your control panel,, click on restore defaults.

otherwise i would run 2 scans for virus/spyware...trendmicro, and either ewido or avg...adaware-se for spyware also

post back

tried that too and tried it again. My system is in tip top shape, so no chance of it being a virus, trojan, spyware, adware etc causing it.

I've probably disabled something as i am always playing around with windows settings, i haven't used common tasks for over a year, which is when i first switched to classic view after installing xp pro, so who knows what ive disabled in that time.

Anyways its of no concern as i know where all those tasks are, i was just curious as to why it won't come back.

Cheers for the post whosdat
