Hi can anyone tell me why I can no longer click on an Internet icon and go to it from my home page desktop? It no longer works. I have no trouble clicking on a word document or outlook express. Would appreciate anyone's help. Thank you
 
Hi Malteser,

Error opening hyperlink
You may be able to resolve the issue by resetting Web
settings in Internet Explorer. Tools, Internet Options, Programs
"Reset Web Settings"

Also if hyperlinks are not opening:
1) Click start/run
2) then type: regsvr32 actxprxy.dll (note there is a space between 2
and a)
3) Enter
4) now type: regsvr32 shdocvw.dll (again noting the space between the
2 and s).
5. Enter

Also check these settings:
Windows Explorer/Tools/Folder Options/File Types.
Scroll down to URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol/Advanced/Edit.
Under Application used to perform action it should read:
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" –nohome
