My Computer/Explorer W2K/XP
This will now make your MY COMPUTER Icon look like your EXPLORER.

Open
"My Computer"
"Tools"
"Folder Options"
"File Type" Find the extention that says "NONE" "folder" MAKE SURE THE FOLDER SAYS "NONE" "folder" NOT "NONE" "file folder"
Click on "Advance" under ACTIONS hightlight "explorer"
click OK.

I prefer to remove My Computer altogether, and instead just use winlogo+E to open explorer when I need it. The instance of explorer launched by this is basically the same as My Computer except with a folder tree.
