Has anyone had experience with shortcuts on the desktop or links inside
programs failing to launch IE?

I am running WIN XP home with all patches. The problem has only recently
appeared.

Thanks for any help or where to get information. Nothing seems to be on
MS support site.

Hi Brian - Go to Start|Run and enter "regsvr32 urlmon.dll" (without the
quotes). After you get a Success message, re-boot. If that doesn't work,
then check out the following article and do the additional steps outlined
there:
