After doing some disk cleanup yesterday the shortcuts to IE7 disappeared.  I used to have one next to the start button and one on the desktop.....gone.

I go to start>programs>internet explorer and it expands to Web Publishing.  If I try and make a shortcut from here it creates a shortcut to the folder.

Only way to access the internet is open Yahoo Messenger>send a email then the IE opens and I can navigate from there.

Any idea how I can create a shortcut for my desktop?
