Personalizing your desktop
5.375 x 8.375 ver 2.3.2
For example, you can personalize the taskbar to include 
Quick Launch icons, and also your favorite URL addresses or 
local folders and programs. 
DEFINITION: URL stands for Uniform Resource Locator, which 
is the address that defines the route to a file on the Web or any 
other Internet facility. Generically, it is known as the World 
Wide Web site address.
Having a list of favorite URLs handy saves time. Using it 
bypasses the need for you to launch your browser first.
To customize your taskbar settings, point to an empty space 
in the taskbar and click the secondary button. Then click 
Properties.
