Network Neighborhood Icon

In a frenzied cleanup of my (Win98SE) Desktop, I deleted the Network Neighborhood Icon. I now want to setup a home network and need the icon! Does anyone know how to restore it without having to reinstal Windows?

you blatantly don't live up to your signature.

theres probibly an easier way, but get tweakUI (the Windows 98 one). follow the instructions and have a look around in it, it may be under 'Desktop'?!

Thanks moistmule for your prompt reply. TweakUI showed the icon as present, but it really wasn't there! Tried "removing" it and then replacing it, also "repair icon", but it didn't work. Any other ideas, somebody?

Thumbs up

I am happy to report that I have sorted the problem. I reinstalled "Dial-up Networking" from the Win98SE CD and this replaced the icon on the desktop.

nice!

still, "Seek and ye shall find!", I can't see how you can put that in your signature and not even Google
