Shortcuts won't work

[rogeepete]

Running Win XP Home and IE6....only shortcut that will work from desktop to
websites is my ISP - Verizon. I see many fixes you have provided to other
users with similar problems but they go back two years. Current fix,
please...

Thanks very much. I'm about a 5 on computer literacy scale.

Hi,
Is IE6 the default browser? Check that at Control Panel> Add or remove
programs> Set program access and defaults.

If you create a new Internet Shortcut, does that work? Example: Go to
www.yahoo.com Make the IE window smaller than the desktop. Drag the IE icon
at the left side of the Address Bar to the desktop. Close all IE windows
then try that shortcut. Does it work?

Hope this helps,
Don
