Slightly complicated, but here goes.

   I installed the free Explorer Patcher. Then I installed
FreeLaunchBar. I got a context menu on the taskbar but
it seemed to be useless. The trouble was that I couldn't
find help for either of these things. I tried installing FLB
again. Windows started strobing. I regretted how long it
had been since my last disk image backup....

   On reboot it was OK. Then I finally found some people
talking about how to do it. I think the FreeLaunchBar
thing was unnecessary. E-P seems to be what adds the
context menu and makes it work. Once you see the
context menu, select the top item to pick taskbar view.
Pick the E-P version. Reboot. You should now have the
old Toolbars item on the context menu. Then you just
proceed like earlier Windows: Name your new toolbar
Quicklaunch and point it to the QL folder:
AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

   I'm telling you the whole story because I haven't actually
uninstalled FLB yet. So I THINK I have the facts straight,
but haven't yet confirmed that it all works without FLB.
