Hi,
After installing SP2 my IE doesn't launch i.e. by clicking
its file/shortcut or any hyperlink nothing happens.
I have norton antivirus 2003 and zonealarm security center
5 in my computer and the windows firewall is disabled.
I have tested some other browsers like MSN explorer-
netscape7.1-opera 7.5 and there is no problem with them.
please help me.

Try the following and see if it helps:

Restore IE Desktop Icon

Desktop icon
Win9x:
IE-Tools-Internet Options-Advanced
Check "Show Internet Explorer on the desktop"

For XP:
Control Panel-Display Properties-Desktop tab.
Customize Desktop

or....................

Courtesy of Robert Aldwinckle -

Use Control Panel's Add/Remove Programs applet.
Click on Add Components and put a checkmark beside
Internet Explorer. Note the Description under the list
when you have selected it...

Description: Adds or removes access to Internet Explorer
from the Start menu and Desktop

(You probably thought you were removing IE in the old Win9x sense
when you unchecked it. ;)

BTW if you are just after an icon you could probably create one
with right-click, New Shortcut, etc.


If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.

Hope this helps
