"Activate web content in folders.." in XP?

Hi!
In Win2000 there's an brilliant function called "activate web content in
folders" under the "Tools" - "Folder option" menu in the File explorer(My
computer).I.e if you
have a folder with pics listed,you could klick one file and get a
quick,small prewiev
right next to the filename(to the left).Likewise if you have a number of wav
files
listed and click one of them, a tiny little player appear in the "file
window",and give you a quick access to the file without having to launch it
in Media Player. This is a
brilliant function in Win200, but I can't find it in XP (Pro)..?!Can anyone
please help me?

You can stop looking. The media player feature that you're describing is
not present in XP.

Not sure what you mean - take a look at the '%systemroot%\web' folder and
you can customize the look and feel (including adding controls to explorer
etc) - take a look through the folder mentioned

There is a very handy media player tool for previewing files in Win2000
that is not present in XP.
