Thanks, Robert, but there is no "Settings" (out of the
box) in XP. I think you meant:
Control Panel ==> Taskbar & Start Menu ==> Classic
Start Menu. That seems to have started to address the
issue. I'll have to see what other GUI aspects can be
"backlevelled" to W2K-like features.

Carl was probably right -- I must have tripped
Control.Com rather than the Exe. I'll confirm that
shortly.
