    kiasuteo--Although I am not sure it applies to WinXP (or if WinXP had a similar patch), you may want to be aware of the problem caused by using TweakUI to remove shortcut arrows after installing a 2002 MS patch.

    (Basically there was a conflict between the patch's new shell32.dll and the TweakUI setting. It is possible the shell32.dll file is part of the recent WinXP Service Pack.)

    kiasuteo--Any problems with your right click context menu now? (Like double entries?)

    Looks like XP does not have that problem.
