Webview

Windows XP uses Webview technology helping you better manage files and the
file namespace. For example, if you select a file or folder, you see a list
of options allowing you to rename, move, copy, e-mail, remove it, or
publish to the Web. This functionality is similar to what you see in
Windows 2000 if you right-click on a file or folder; Windows XP takes this
information and brings it into view directly on the desktop,
