Default Windows Service Pack 2 Error

Daave,
I tried all of nass's suggestions, and the one that sort of worked was this
FavOrg tool.
FavOrg - Restore and Save Favorite Icons
http://www.gratilog.net/anglais/internet/favorg.zip

It seemed to restore about half of the bookmark icons in my Favorites back
to the IE icon, but only about half of them. Now when I'm on a website, the
icon on the URL is the IE icon. so yeah it worked. As far as the other half
of the Bookmark icons, if I actually physically replace the bookmark with a
new one from the same website, it will show IE icon. I have over 300
bookmarks, so I won't be doing that. I'll have to live with the unrepaired
ones, until I slowly but surely replace them.
Thank you again for all your help.

Sometimes rebooting (even twice) can fix such a problem.

If not, did you try the two Kelly's Korner tweaks from nass's post?

I have the desktop IE icon. Just the URL IE icon is that weird piece
of paper with the corner folded down thing.
Thanks.

nass,
Of all your suggestions, the FavOrg tool was the one that fixed it. Thanks!!
You're a genius. The icon on the actual URL in the address bar now has the IE
icon. About half of the bookmark icons in my Favorites are back to the IE
icon. The other half are still that weird "unsupported file" icon. I found
that if I physically replace the Bookmark with a new one from the same
website, it will show the IE icon. Since I have over 300 bookmarks, I won't
be doing that. I'll have to live with them until slowly but surely they get
replaced.
Thank you again for all your help!

Default Windows Service Pack 2 Error


Tom
I think you installed SP3 first then IE7 which will make it difficult to
uninstall IE7. Why? Because I'm guessing your IE installation not complete or
damaged by interferring from the Anti-virus or the download interrrupted
somehow/somewhere along the line!!!

Last thing to try is to reinstall IE7 by downloading the installer from here
and run it. Please disconnect from the internet and Disable your
Firewall/Antivirus program then double click the installer to execute. Reboot
your machine and the first thing to do is to RENABLE the Firewall/Antivirus
program then reconnect to the Internet.

Internet Explorer 7 downloads
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/dow.../getitnow.mspx

If the above didn't work try to Run the Disk Check up on Reboot and see if
that will solve the issue. Other than that leave it it my need another
security updates to sort out this mess.

You can download this tool to run clean up (run both the Application and the
Registry Options):
http://www.ccleaner.com/download/bui...wnloading-slim

Run this command:
sfc /scannow

why don't you download from another computer?

I have never installed Service Pack 2 because I always get an error 3/4 of
the way through installation. My system has worked fine without it up
until
now. Now I'm having real browser problems and stuff.
Every time I have ever attempted to download SP2, the error message code
is
Error Code: 0x80070080.
How do I rectify this?
I really want to upgrade my service pack.
Thanks.

nass,
Yes, I did download SP3 first before I downloaded IE7. Reason being that I
had SP1 before and couldn't download IE7 until I upgraded my Service Pack.
I'll go to the website and re-download IE7 and let you know what happens.

problem. Simple enough.
Thanks for all your invaluable help along the way.

Resolved the missing icon/favicon problem by upgrading browser to IE8 for SP3.
Thanks for all your help!
It was appreciated.

Sometimes rebooting (even twice) can fix such a problem.

If not, did you try the two Kelly's Korner tweaks from nass's post?

No, sir. No luck there.
Still missing.
I have the desktop IE icon. Just the URL IE icon is that weird piece
of paper with the corner folded down thing.
Thanks.

Here's one last problem. After I downloaded SP3 and upgraded to IE7,
the IE icon that's to the far left of the URL, and is next to every

weird icon you get when you have a file, but no program to support
it? Know what I mean? It's white colored and it looks like a corner
of a piece of paper is folded over? Get me? How do I get the IE icon
back on the address bar next to the URL, and in my Bookmarks?

Try this for starters:

Any luck?

for SP3. Thanks for all your help!
It was appreciated.
