Activity Light

Quote:
XP comes with a free Network Activity Light, just in case you can't see the LEDs twinkle on your network card. Right click on My Network Places on the desktop, then select Properties. Right click on the description for your LAN or dial-up connection, select Properties, then check the Show icon in notification area when connected box. You'll now see a tiny network icon on the right of your task bar that glimmers nicely during network traffic.
I found this on dig and wanted to try it

I can't find My Network Places on the desktop does anybody know wear I can find it

thanks

Send a message via AIM to Alaron
Start, Settings, Network Connections. On the left side, there is a list with My Network Places.

That's been a feature since Win95.
