Hi

I accidentally launched the MSN setup yesterday but
closed it before installing it. However I now have the
icons from MSN explorer and E-mail, instead of Internet
Exporer and Outlook at the top of my start menu in the
section above recently used programs. How can I remove
them and revert back to the original IE and Outlook
entries ?

Thanks

Try this...Right-click Start button. Click Properties>Start Menu>Customize.
Under the General tab, look for the section "Show on start menu". You should
be able to change the settings there. Click OK when you're finished.

Right-click the START menu, and click PROPERTIES. Click the button that says
CUSTOMIZE beside start menu. On the GENERAL tab, and the bottom, you can
indicate which mail and browser programs you want to be defaulted.
