I updated to the latest IE and I think it updated my movie viewer.

Now, the shortcuts on my desktop have all gone to some kind of default
image. Nothing I can do will let me change the desktop shortcut images to
the icons I had before the update. When I hit apply nothing happens.

Please help.

UHhhhhh.............................

I'll have to study this awhile. You definatly have given me much to
contemplate. I am sure I'll be very happy in a week or two. 682 answers to
questions I would never thought to ask, but now I will just out of
curiosity.

Thanks.
