How do you add a frequently used folder similar to My Computer when you open My Computer and see "Files on This Computer" heading with some shared folders underneath to this list of folders? I simply want to add another folder to this list that contains files I attach to emails. I have to browse to the sub folder to find the file. If the sub folder could appear in the system list it would make life easier. OS is XP with SP2.

I actually wasnt sure if this would work untill i tried it but it does. Go to my network places , browse to your computer (if you dont see it click 'entire network' on the left pane then 'microsoft windows network', then your workgroup or domain then your computer) right click the folder you want and select map network drive (it must be shared or you wont see it). kinda like runnin in a circle but it works!
