Question Windows XP SP2 - Problem with Internet Explorer Shortcuts
When I install the SP2 upgrade I no longer can use internet shortcut icons. When I dclick the internet shortcut icon the browser opens but it always shows "about:blank" in the address bar.

I found the cause of the problem was a third party browser. I uninstalled the browser then rebooted to set IE as the default browser and reset the IE defaults.
