776750 2009-05-25 04:23:00 IE creating a Shortcut when you double click it I assume you mean, if so this works:

Download This (www.kellys-korner-xp.com) and save it someplace.


make sure you get the right ones here:

Then open the Reg, click Start/run, type in regedit navigate to the following keys ---

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D}

Delete that key {871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D} + all sub keys


Next:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D}

Delete that key {871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D} + all sub keys

Close the Reg.

Next - right click the file you downloaded before - right click / merge.

IE will now open normally (or should)

Depending on what SP you are using for XP, the desktop icon may disappear, if SP2 right click desktop -> Properties->Desktop->customize desktop-> check Internet Explorer hit ok, and ok.

IF SP3, download This here (blog.ryantadams.com) and run it, you may need to right click the desktop/ refresh or even reboot.

The Manual way - which I do, as its faster than trying to locate that damn fix all the time is open the registry, navigate to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons
\NewStartPanel -- In the right hand pane, double-click {871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D} key.

Change the 1 to a 0 , exit out , right click desktop, refresh - and bingo, one Working IE.

776752 2009-05-25 18:30:00 Do you have any other computers connected to the net at your place?

If so, does the problem happen to you, or everyone?

776756 2009-05-27 05:57:00 Give FF access. Otherwise there's no point having Comodo installed, if its disabled. You may as well uninstall it Speedy Gonzales (78)
