You might also try a repair of IE --
Click Start>Run, type the following and click Enter, for IE5x:
RUNDLL32 SETUPWBV.DLL,IE5Maintenance
or this, if you have IE6x installed:
RUNDLL32 SETUPWBV.DLL,IE6Maintenance
Choose the Repair option, and continue.
If the repair says it cannot complete, or it does not fix the problem, try
reinstalling Internet Explorer:
