Well, number one: On the right hand side of my taskbar, the side with the time on it you'll notice that there's this little button thing with two little arrows that point towards the start button, once you click it, it automaticly hides all the programs that are open, how would I get this, I've noticed it on other XP computers but mine doesn't have it?

It's like this (<< )

Secondly, whenever I download something it goes to the Default users Documents, I want it to go to my Documents, I have my own user on the computer, so when I download something it goes to the default users documents.

Thanks. :sure:

Problem #1...right click your "start" icon, then "properties", then select "Taskbar", then select "Hide inactive icons"...you're done.

Problem #2...When you download something you get a screen that says "File Download" click "save", you then get a screen that says "Save As"...simply click the file you wish to use this time (and in the future unless you change it later)...and away you go. I use a file called "Downloads" in "Program Files"...that way I can always find it in the future if I have to reload something (also good for CD backup creation).
