    Untick QUICKLAUNCH under TOOLBARS
    When I do that, everything along the taskbar vanishes, and I get the line of little dots, but when I try and drag a site from the the address bar to add to quick launch, it won't add.

    I really do appreciate your help & advice here aliEnRIK

    Yes, I've tried different ways, unticking lock the taskbar / quick launch, then just unticking quick launch.

    Possibly the operating system has become corrupt. I know thats not what you want to hear so lets try some basics first

    Download CCLEANER
    http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/
    Run the top 2 scans (Backup the registry when it asks)

    Download GLARY UTILITIES (Make sure you tick 'DOWNLOAD NOW')
    http://www.download.com/Glary-Utilities/3000-2094_4-10508531.html
    Run the 'one click scanner'

    Are there any OTHER toolbars etc in the toolbar list? (Aside from quicklaunch and the vista basics)

    Lastly, download HIJACK THIS
    http://www.filehippo.com/download_hijackthis/
    SCAN and post the log so we can see if anything looks a little dodgy
    :idea:
