Thank you all for your help. I appreciate you taking the time to assist with my problem. If you are interested JC7 solved my problem with a simple adjustment I evidently had destroyed the original bug but had not got rid of its linking my desktop to a webpage. The thread is under internet explorer.
Thanks again for your help.

just to let you guys know I had the exact same problem and this fix's it. But I had to get to it a different way... Just go to control panels/Display/Desktop/Customize Desktop/ and then to the Web tab and then uncheck the security box there/ Apply now, and problem is solved

Thanks DLH for the info.
