Lockergnomie Eric Hop discovered a way to make Explorer work the way it should have in the first place: "Right-click on "My Computer" and select "Explore". In the menu, select View, Folder Options, then File Types. Scroll down to the "Folder" entry and click the 'Edit..." button. Select the action "Explore" and press the "Set Default" button. Now, double-clicking the "My computer" icon starts the Explorer window with the side folder pane." Coolies!
