That is what I was looking for. Do you happen to know what the keys are?

I realize I can turn off ALL thumbnails, I don't want that. I want thumbnails for pictures, not all my other files. I want pdfs to show the icon not a thumbnail of the actual file. In XP you had the option to display files as icons and certain folders that housed pictures you could choose display as thumbnails. Vista only lets you choose thumbnails for the entire computer or not as far as I know.

No, the general thumbnails for all of windows explorer.

I am having trouble with these Vista thumbnails. I know I can turn off thumbnails for all Icons. I want thumbnails to be shown for pictures I do not want to see a thumbnail for pdfs dwg and everything else. Does anyone know if this is possible? I would settle for disabling the desktop thumbnails if possible.

I need to get up to speed on the basics of networking. I am looking for some tutorials or something to help. Specifially I am trying to share files and internet with a PC and a MAC. The PC is mine and the MAC is my kid's. I have 2 10/100 network cards in my PC and the mac is setup also. Is it possible to use the network cards or will I have to buy a router? And am I even going to get them both to comunicate together? I am connected to the net via cable modem. Any help I thank you in advance.
