System Folders Button - add Quicklaunch

Salvete! In the dropdown menu button on my toolbar, with the red "S", there is no entry there for the QuickLaunch. This would be a good addition, I think. In XP, the directory path is:
%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch
I'm not sure what it is in Windows 7.

I have added "Internet" in 575.

Marek, I took a look at "Internet" in 575. In XP, the S-menu says "Internet Explorer", and when I select it, and copy the location from the address bar using XE, I get: ::{871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D}.

This is the path that FCXE copies for me from that address bar, but the directory displayed in the tab is really the desktop (with all the shortcut icons missing), even though the address bar says now, "Internet Explorer". If I go up a directory, XE highlights the last directory I was in - again, the directory in the tab is desktop, but the last directory that is highlighted amoungst the icons is the desktop shortcut to Internet Explorer's application - it is no directory.

I think that ::{871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D} is not, perhaps, the same for XP and Windows 7, if you are using that for the directory address.

My Internet Explorer directory is here:
%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer

Also, I am showing two "My Documents" entries in my S-menu, but they both link to the same directory.

There are also two "Application Data" - but one of them should be labelled "Local Application Data"

Thanks for the update!
