Win Vista Explorer change view to old XP ?

[Gumby22]

Ok I dunno how else to explain this but to provide a screen shoot.

1) I'd like to get rid of the Favorite links crap at the top, it just takes up space and I would never use it.

2) I would like to see the options above folders that had file, edit, view, Tools.

3) would like to see the icons in the bar for the same like Cut , Copy, Paste, delete and Map drive ...etc. I used them all the time and makes work so much easier for me.



4) Using WinZip now only allows you to just one option and that is to extract all. wich forces you to select a folder and then extract. The old better way (for me at least) was right click and select Extract files Here.
IS ther any way of getting that back?

I installed WinRar but it's not listed when I right click on a Rar file. What can I do to make that option appear in the right click options list as it did in Win XP Pro?

I know this is a lot so I will say thanks now for any help someone can give me.
