URL's open printer dialog box

[Mike]

Hi,

I have run into a problem on some of our machines where a normal user's
URL's seem to have lost their association. The don't have the IE icon and
when they open them it launches the printer dialog box.

This is only affecting about 20 or so users out of 1100 - and doesn't affect
machine admin's.

This appears to have happened since we pushed out an update to our 850+
workstations last Thursday night - and I'm not sure if it's one of the
patches that's caused the problem. I have searched google groups and can see
some resolutions for the problem - but they don't seem to work on our
machines, plus the users don't have the permissions to do some of the stuff.

Here are the updates that got deployed .

MS06-013
MS06-014
MS06-015
MS06-016

Acrobat 7.0.7 update

Hope someone can shed some light on the problem - these are the fixes I have
tried...

Also tried the fix from Dougknox

Thanks

We have also noticed that Window Search utility doesn't load anymore for a
normal user - does for an admin. No error's just doesn't appear...

We have tested and confirmed that MS06-015 is the problem patch.
