MS Paint

I rebooted my computer and now I've lost MS Paint? I'm running Windows XP Pro and Office XP Pro. I don't want to uninstall and reinstall everything. Is there somewhere I can just download MS Paint from? Is there an option box somewhere that I check to make it visible?




(I did go onto the Microsoft site and got buried in the help section)

just search your hard drive for mspaint.exe and then make a shortcut and place it on your desktop.

Could you please ? Oh, and how and where do I install it? Sorry I'm a computer n00b.



(BTW AOL sucks !! I spent about 5 hours going through programs when I uninstalled it yesterday. For 'live' online help there's still a waiting time of 5 minutes and it's not an instant reply to your question! It's still doing weird things to my cookies. Everytime I sign onto any forum, I have to log in again . )

At work here on XP Pro, it is mspaint.exe
Installed at c:\windows\system32\mspaint.exe
here.

I was going to attach the file here, but it is to big.
