a couple in "Find Files and Folders",but their "Send To"
shortcuts.Do i have to re-run the disk just to make it
work again?In properties of these 3 i found,2 have 0 KB
sizes and 1 has 1KB in size.Could someone please help?????

Easy solution is to let Windows make you a new one. Type
into the Run Box
Regsvr32 Sendmail.dll

Then Reboot.

If no joy then be sure these keys and values exist in the
registry and try again.

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.DeskLink]
@="CLSID\\{9E56BE61-C50F-11CF-9A2C-00A0C90A90CE}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{9E56BE61-C50F-11CF-9A2C-00A0C90A90CE}]
@="Desktop (create shortcut)"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Send To]
@="{7BA4C740-9E81-11CF-99D3-00AA004AE837}"
