I had to repair a user account on my computer. When I had finished, I
noticed that there was no original desktop icon for IE7. I know how
to make a shortcut of it, but I would like the original icon back. I
checked in the display properties and there was no option for it. Can
anyone help me get the icon back? I'm happy to use the shortcut, but
I would prefer to use the original icon.
Thanks

Posted same issue in this Newsgroup March 30 after doing clean
install of XP Pro SP3. I didn't have Key No. mention in MS article
http://support.microsoft.com:80/kb/555849 and had to create the
key number as follows:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel
In the right hand pane, right click and select New > Dword Value.
Rename the new value 871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D
with a data value 0.
Close the registry editor and hit the F5 key to refresh the desktop.

In my previous post, apologies for leaving out brackets.
If have to create new Dword Value, should be
{871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D}

Tx for link - great website for all IE issues.
Reg.script fix to restore IE desktop icon much quicker and easier
to use than manually editing registry.
