For some reason, now when I place a shortcut to an
internet address on my desktop, it will not open IE. I
know I probably did something but darned if I know what
that was.

Thanks

What (if anything) does it open instead?
You might try: (in IE) Tools>Options>Programs and check the checkbox at the
very bottom of the frame labelled "Internet Explorer should check to see
whether it is the default browser". Then restart IE and press yes or ok if
it asks to set IE as the default browser.

If you have installed service pack one then go to Control Panel>Add/Remove
Programs>Set Program Access and Defaults and make sure that Internet
Explorer is accessible.
