ok first of all, the "My Bluetooth Places" can be found if you click on my computer icon and its under "other", well at least thats how it is on my pc(windows xp home).
As for enabling, havent you got any bluetooth icons in "control panel", ive got 2, "Bluetooth devices" and "Bluetooth configeration", if you click on "Bluetooth devices" then click on options and thats where all the turning on/off is done.
Thats all i know anyway...
