    drag it and drop it!

    by the way, a handy trick is to hold down the windows button and press D, does the same trick!!

    A quick google search returned the solution...

    "How to Re-create the Show Desktop Icon on Quick Launch Toolbar"
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;190355

    The google search I used was... "quick launch" "show desktop" missing "windows xp" site:microsoft.com

    ...it was the first result returned.
