Internet Explorer

I have Version 7 of windows Internet Explorer on my system. Windows XP service pack 3. When I click on it , all I get is another shortcut on the desktop. If I right click on the main icon,all that comes up is....Create shortcut, Delete, Rename,...

Have you ran an anti-virus program on your system lately?

yes, have anti-virus program, nothing found. Firefox browser and Google chrome work fine, just Explorer not working.

Possibly SP3 is making your system wonky... try this, go to "My Computer/C:(your HDD)/Programs/Internet Explorer", then right click the Explorer.exe and send it to the desktop as a shortcut.

I'm still running IE6 on XP, SP3 here, no probs at all.
