How do I create a custom folder like "My Documents" ?
You do only need one icon, but this icon must be a shortcut. The Internet Explorer icon on the Desktop is not a shortcut (no small arrow). It is - seen from MS-DOS - not a LNK file. You may do the same as I have done: I have created shortcuts for My Computer, My Documents and the Recycle Bin in my Start Menu.
