I run vista - if you go to the funny little start circle then computer it should be seen at the bottom of the list of folders ( unless you have really done somehting odd ) .

Do you find Vista freezes in IE ? or is it just me ?

Sometimes IE opens loads of of windows on its own, spoke to two other users who also have the same problem.

I saw that happen on a friend's machine yesterday-he had to reboot to stop it.

Click the 'Windows' icon bottom left of the 'Desktop' screen...

A menu opens up with programmes in a field with a white background on the left. In the dark background area on the right you'll find 'Computer' about half way up. Click on that...

'Recycle Bin' is at the bottom of the list now appearing on the left. Either click on that to open the 'Recycle Bin', or, press 'Ctrl' and press and hold 'left mouse button' to drag it to the Desktop
