I would like Explorer to display data (files) in Explorer the same way they
are displayed in Win2k or XP. This includes graphic files as well as web
related files.

When I open a directory that contains graphic files, or a directory
containing web files, instead files' details Vista shows pictures or icons.

My question is how can I make Vista explorer display the information same
way as in Win2k or XP.

You can do this on any folder. Right click the folder and select
Properties/Customize Tab. In the top section click the drop down menu and
select All Items or Documents. Click the "Also apply this template to all
subfolders" option, if you want this to apply to the entire folder tree.

This procedure is not recommended for any of the "special" folders such as
Pictures, Videos, Contacts, etc.
