Have you tried resetting the internet settings in IE's Tools, Internet
Options, Advanced tab? (Or Control panel, Internet options, Advanced tab).

Diane, an update:

I guess it would help if I made IE my DEFAULT browser?

Silly me!


But I want to give a shout out to you Diane, for all of the fine work you do
for us in these newsgroups. You have been a big help to me many, many
times.

Thanks again,

Glad to be of service. :)

FWIW, it shouldn't be necessary to keep IE as default - once you verify it
works you can switch back top whatever you prefer.

http://www.slipstick.com/problems/link_restrict.htm - not quite the same
problem, but it has the complete list of things to try when you get errors
that may be related to multiple browsers.
