I found this in a few different places around the 'net - hopefully it's helpful:
Display the Quick Launch Toolbar
Is your Quick Launch toolbar missing from the taskbar?
To display the familiar Quick Launch toolbar:
- Right-click an empty area on the taskbar.
- Click Toolbars, and then click Quick Launch.
Easy as that your Quick Launch bar appears.
To add items to your Quick Launch toolbar:
- Click the icon for the program you want to add, and drag it to the Quick Launch portion of the taskbar.
