I have installed IE 4.0 now my shortcut icons are corrupt.

A. A. Windows keeps a cache of icons and this can becomecorrupted and so one method to try is to delete the hidden file'%SystemRoot%ShellIconCache' and restart Windows NT. The 'correct' desktopicons will be recreated when you login.

C:> attrib %systemroot%shelliconcache -h
C:> del %systemroot%shelliconcache

If the icons are still corrupt delete the file again and reboot. I have seenmany occasions where two reboots are necessary.

This problem can also be caused by an incompatibility between the finalversion of Internet Explorer 4.0 and TweakUI. Tofix this you will need to uninstall TweakUI.

If you get an error saying it was unable to be removed you can manuallyremove it by entering the following command

rundll32 syssetup.dll,SetupInfObjectInstallAction DefaultUninstall 4e:winntinftweakui.inf

You should then reboot the computer.

If you find after the reboot the icons are still corrupt, install TweakUIagain and then remove.
