I'm catching up with past posts. If someone commented then Sorry.  FYI in XP's 
regular mode Right Click the task bar --> Click Properties The Task Bar and 
Start menu Window should open--> Click the Start Menu Tab on Top (make sure 
Start menu is clicked) and--> Click the Customize Button. The Customize Start 
Menu Window Opens --> Click the Advanced Tab on top. Now look at the middle of 
the window for Start Menu Items: Scroll through To see how your Control Panel 
will be displayed (one of three options) 1) Display asa  Link 2) Display as a 
Menu 3) Don't Display This Item.  You can change the following items (My 
Computer, My Documents, My Music, My Pictures, Network Connections, System 
Admin Tools along with a few other items) in the same way using the above 
directions.

Someone who is not running Control Panel in classic mode will have to tell 
you where to find it.  I never understood the logic behind the grouping of 
Control Panel objects from day one (~ 2002) and still wonder what they were 
smoking when they designed the arrangement.  Switching over to classic mode 
is one of the first things I do on every system I install, so I have no idea 
where it might be in yours.  To get to it another way, open up RUN, type in 
firewall.cpl and hit the ENTER key.

Peace,
Gman
