Vista - Favorite Links in Explorer

My Favorite Links shortcut space in Explorer no longer shows the Links. I
have reset the Links folder to the default and it still does not display. I
liked this feature and would like to continue to use it. any hel;p?

When you type "shell:links" (no quotation marks) in the Start Search box of
the Start Menu, and press Enter on your keyboard, what is the path of the
folder? Are there shortcuts in it? If you go up a directory, does the
Links folder have the special blue-green icon, or is it a generic manila
one?

Respnonse to First Question:
The folder is <user>/documents/Links - its blue green

Response to the Second Question:
Yes - I will uhndo that tweak when I get home to see if that helps. Would
suck if removing shortcut arrow disables those links. I hate the shortcut
arrow.
