> How do I get my IE icon to run IEXPLORE.EXE instead of explorer.exe?
Have you tried an IE Repair?
It's likely that your associations for file types is corrupted somehow.
If that doesn't help, to give us something to look at try the following
commands in a command window and capture their results:
assoc .exe
ftype | findstr /i "exefile explorer\."
BTW this is slightly off-topic for this newsgroup. You may find better
assistance in a newsgroup which specializes in your OS.
