Quick Launch Toolbar disappears at each boot after we allowed install of SP3
Win XP Pro system.

We reset it (with lost icon sequence), but it's gone on next reboot!
What's wrong?

See if this will work:

1. In Registry Editor (Start > Run... > regedit), navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

2. Find the "Userinit" key
3. ther data probably contains:

%system32%\wsaupdater.exe,

where %system32% represents the path to the System32 folder. For example,
C:\Windows\System32

4. Instead of wsaupdater.exe, the data should contain userinit.exe,. Using
the example above, change the data to: (double click userinit)

C:\Windows\System32\userinit.exe,

Do not forget to add the comma at the end

5. Close the Registry Editor and reboot your computer.

I have exactly the same problem: new install of win xp professional, after
install of sp3, and install of Nero 7 and Spybot v1.6 no more quick launch
after very reboot.
Changing the registry was not necessary: the userinit was ok in the location
you mentionned. Is there any other fix?
I searched the interent and nothing seems to help.
