How did I get a "shortcut toolbar" ? [SOLVED]

[#1]

This won't be clear ...
I "did something" without knowing and then undid it without realising ...
Somwhow I created (by some click-combination) a "shortcut toolbar" on my desktop.
That is, an existing  shortcut  to a directory on one of my HD partitions "turned into" a toolbar for that shortcut (displaying it's subdirectories) on the desktop
I know this is clear as mud, (but I was doing something else completely and suddenly found this novelty under the mouse pointer ...  and because I was thinking elsewhere, closed it as quickly without really noticing what was going on .. otherwise you'd get a screenshot)
Windows XP Home Sp3, by the way
Anyone have a clue what I did or how I might recreate it?

Was this before or after you opened the wine?

Just Kidding
Did It look like this?

[#5]

nope.
you can create a toolbar by right-clicking on the taskbar and then toolbars/create toolbar and selecting a folder
it looked a bit like that but on the desktop
I feel extremely lame for not being able to reproduce this or even describe it at all adequately.

ok got it
drag any folder icon against the edge of the screen and drop it there
phew
