I've just uninstaleld the new IE Beta2 and my old IE will not open
links which have been passed through to it from software like "Goggle
Desktop" or even MSN messenger.

All i get is a blank IE page which does not attempt to load the
relivent page. If i open up the browser and type in an address it
workes fine.

I'm sure it's just a DLL that needs registered but which one?

anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

Bill C

I found this problem too, along with many other people on the Microsoft
forums. I found the answer was to make ie7 the default browser and to
deselect default on the other browser (in my case firefox) When I installed
ie7 it overwrote ie6 in any case, and I don't think even gave an option to
keep ie6.
I am finding ie7 to be very good, only real problem I have found is with
java stuff.

Hi Mr cheerful

I origionaly "Uninstalled" IE7 so i'm on IE6.5. The problem i'm having
is with IE6.5 :(:(
it was working fine with IE7 Beta2 but i just found the layout annoying
and a few sites would not let me in as they could not recognise IE7 as
a versino of interent explorer!! :)

But i'll try the Default browser anyway see if it does anything!!!

Thanks!
