A Shortcut to Fonts icon should now appear on your desktop.

STEP THREE

Now you want to browse to the Send To folder which can be found by clicking on My Computer and then taking the following steps:

C:\Documents and Settings\your user name here\Send To
(replace "your user name here" with your user name)

STEP FOUR

Now drag the Shortcut to Fonts icon into the Send To folder:

STEP FIVE

So now whenever you have fonts that you've downloaded and need to install, just right click on them and choose Send To > Fonts!

Go to your C: drive, then click documents and settings, click your username. Now in the address bar up top of this you should see something like "C:\Documents and Settings\Username*

Now type "\SendTo" after this without the quotation marks, and hit enter, now you'll be in the SendTo Folder, and all you have to do is paste the net shortcut for fonts (or any other folder u want a sendto link to (weird syntax lol) )

*Username will be whatever the account name your on at the moment in xp.
