• INTERNET EXPLORER 8 32 bit & 64 bit ICON IMAGES IN THE taskbar

  Why not do the 32-bit & 64-bit Images different icons for Internet Explorer 8 in the taskbar when pin them us to the taskbar of the two different program files directories (version 64 bits in Program Files, & in Program Files (x 86) 32-bit version)?

  In this way, we will do it know what version of IE8 we enable when you click on one of the two ICONS IE8 (32-bit or 64-bit) by going on the Internet.

  For example, some software are still 32-bit development stage and need to be addressed by the 32-bit version of IE8, until they are ready for the 64 bit version, like Adobe Flash for example.

  I agree that would help a little difference in icons. However, placing the cursor on the icon should tell yoou who he is. The 64-Bit Version says 64-bit while the 32-bit Version only says IE.

  You see only your background image and the wallpaper?
  Miss all your desktop icons and you don't see the taskbar at the bottom of the screen or are simply missing icons and you can see the taskbar at the bottom?
  Check the simple things first.  Right-click on an open space on your desktop, choose Arrange icons by and make sure the option show desktop icons has a check mark next to it.  This will work if you don't miss you that the desktop icons, but still see the Start button and the taskbar.
  If only you can see your wallpaper background picture and don't see the desktop icons and no start button or taskbar, this means that the explorer.exe program does not run (and it must be running) or the explorer.exe program are usually afflicted.  A good way to think about at the moment, it is that the process explorer.exe "is" your desktop.
  If this is the case, the malicious software in general is preparing.
  What is your system brand and model?
  What is your version of XP and the Service Pack?
  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?
  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..
  Sometimes your anti malware program to quarantine (and indeed remove) your file explorer.exe (or other critical files on the XP system) if it finds that the file is infected.  The file may really be infected, but you can know for sure and then reconsider your anti malware options.
  First, you need to get your work desk, then you can solve your problem of potential malware.
  Of your background image, press CTRL-ALT-DEL and open Task Manager.
  Look at the processes tab and if the process explorer.exe is not running, start it as follows:
  In Task Manager, click file, new task, and in the Open box, enter:
  %windir%\explorer.exe
  Click OK and see if get you your office.
  If explorer.exe is already running in the processes tab, it is likely that the object of the affection and will need to be replaced (which is not difficult).
  If you notice that the explorer.exe process is already running in the Task Manager, highlight the explorer.exe process, and then click end process to stop and start a new explorer.exe process as described above.
  If things look right now, your system is still not fixed, but it should be enough usable so now you can fix it.
  I would start with these scans:
  Perform scans for malware first, then these scans by operating clean, difficulty of problems:
  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
  They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
  Please report back with information about your system and your results if you need additional assistance.

  Do, or do not. There is no test.

  To configure your display appearance, wants to get small icons on your desktop

  Right click on an open area of the desktop and select Properties.
  Click the appearance tab.
  Click on 'effects' (in my Version of XP in German), perhaps you will need to click on Advanced.

  In my XP there is a "huge symbols" choice, if you have this choice, remove the hook.

  Good luck and have a nice day!

  Kind regards

  Try this:

  Go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your laptop computer-graphics/computer card > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

  Then:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-AU/Windows-Vista/change-screen-resolution

  Change the screen resolution

  Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

  See you soon.
