Hi
On my winxp pro sp2 IE7 machine, one of my
account, I cannot launch any application. When I right
click, the pull down menu does not have the "open"
option in it. When I double click the short cuts, the
icons and the actual executable, nothing happens. However, what works is the
Windows Explorer. I can still browse through my
directory.
Now when I switch to another account, everything
works. I tried running anti-virus scan and it found
nothing.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Vicente Chung

Easiest fix in these situations is to create a new account, move the data files,
then remove the "bad" account. Takes about five minutes; finding the true cause may
take hours.
