Windows Seven 7: Restore Quick Launch Toolbar | Windows 7 News & Development | Windows Tools, Help & Guides
Not sure if you will be able to separate the icons with a lower, and upper line of them like you want, though. Hope this helps. I kind of missed quick-launch at first, but as I'm the only one allowed on this computer, I got used to pinning items to the taskbar.
