Missing side bar (unkown actual name)

[Kallb123]

Hi,
When browsing in a folder there is normally thick strip down the left hand side of the window showing 'File and Folder Tasks', 'Other Places' and 'Details'. I am using Windows XP home edition and want to get this side bar back since it is missing. How do i do that?
Thanks
