Network Neghborhood

My system seems to be missing the Network Neghborhood icon
and related functionality. Can't seem to find it on the
Windows installation disk. Can someone tell me how I can
a) find it on my system, or b) load it from the original
Windows disk? Thanks.

Someone might have hidden Network Neighborhood using Tweak UI. Go to
Control Panel. If Tweak UI is present, double click it. On the
Desktop tab, put a check mark in the Network Neighborhood box, click
Apply and OK.

If that doesn't work, go to Control Panel | Network. Remove Client
for Microsoft Networks if it's present. Then add Client for Microsoft
Networks. That should make Network Neighborhood re-appear.

If that doesn't work, there could be a system policy hiding Network
Neighborhood. Run the registry editor, open this key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer

and delete the value named "NoNetHood".
