The control panel as a folder, doesn't really exist as far as I can tell. It simply collates the .cpl files that reside on your system (normally c:\windows\system32\) and displays them in a useable format.
Try doing a search for *.cpl on you c:\ drive and see the results!
Oh..and by the way...welcome to TZ!

Hi, thx. No wonder I cannot find the folder using an application outside of windows xp. Maybe this will be an
interesting question for you. I'm running the Sockscap on windows and if you are familiar with that program, you can add application programs to it and run them through sockscap. The process is called "socksifying". Instead of having to look for each and every *.exe program to put into sockscap, I was trying to find the root control program for network connections- those programs located in the Network Connections folder of Control Panel if you know what I'm talking about. You know, the one that you log into your ISP with. Unfortunately I can't locate these connection programs. And I'm not sure if these are even *.exe programs which would make my task a waste of time.
