Default Task pane acting weird.

My Task Pane is really weird.

It seems like my entire C drive (along with all the folders in it) are
customized as pictures folders, and my entire D drive (along with all th
efolders in it) are customized as music folders.

This is really weird, because my Windows folder comes out "thumbnailed" with
boxes over every folder, and sometimes with images on teh folders (like in My
Pictures).

AND, My Pictures, My Videos both lost their special customization, and I
don't know how to get them back.

Jeffrey,

For the first problem:

Visit http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
Apply the fix in line 2, "Increase Folder View Size Limit to 8000".
Ignore the title.
