I know this is a trivial problem with my PC, but it is one that has been agrivating me for some time.... My quick launch toolbar shows programs correctly (i.e. something that designates it from the others) but only shows a generic icon for each quick launch (i.e. an E when I was using Explorer and now a small fox since I am using Firefox).
Is there a way to actually see the particular icons for each quick launch ??...

How do you have the Taskbar and Start Menu configured? If it is XP, try switching it to the Classic Menu using the start Menu selection?
