RE: Shortcuts won't open IE

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the feedback. I was having the same problem as Jackie D, and
tried modifying the URL. That didn't work so I unchecked DDE, not help. Then
I used Tools, Internet Options, Programs and reset the Web Settings. That did
the trick.

Maybe something I did on the Advanced Tab?
