Internet Explorer / IE >> IE7 won't run display XP ? (At least mine)
I believe I'm current with all the service packs and patches to
Windows XP. As part of the latest update I downloaded and installed
IE7. When I double-click on the icon.....nothing. No window
displayed, no error message, nothing in the event logs. But looking
in the task manager iexplore.exe does start up. IE6 worked fine and
Firefox works fine. Any ideas ? Kind of strange. I've tried to
upgrade three times with the same results.
Thanks

This must be the new "Silent Running" feature of IE7. Actually, come to think
of it, most MS functionality are silent running, except when you're working
on some critical piece of work and can't afford to lose data, then...there is
no silent running then...there is only the flash of the screen telling you
that the system has to close and shutdown. Why?....why the hell not? Does it
make you angry, frustrated, and outraged? Then it has done its work
satisfactorily accroding to Microsoft's plan.

Hi Mike,
Seems that Dale is a dill without practicle advice.
First have a read of the IE7 release notes at
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/aa740486.aspx
with particular attention to the Late-Breaking Notes and Issues (a third
down the page)
Some previously installed software addons may not be compatible with IE7
Here is a copy and paste list
Google Desktop--Earlier versions of Google Desktop could cause Internet
Explorer 7 to stop responding when opening new tabs. You need to install the
latest version of the Google desktop.
MSN 1.02 Toolbar--The MSN toolbar version 1.02 causes Internet Explorer 7 to
stop responding. You can download the latest version of the MSN Toolbar
here.
Microsoft Developer Toolbar and Internet Explorer 7--The latest version of
the Microsoft Developer Toolbar runs correctly with Internet Explorer 7. You
can download it from the Internet Explorer Download Page. Previous versions
of the Developer Toolbar do not display correctly on systems running
Internet Explorer 7 and sometimes cause Internet Explorer to hang.
VeriSign i-NavT Plug-in--Users of the VeriSign i-Nav IDN Resolver Plug-in
might notice that they are unable to navigate to Internationalized Domain
Names (IDNs) in Internet Explorer 7. This is caused by Internet Explorer 7
enhanced support for IDNs. To navigate to IDNs in Internet Explorer 7,
follow these steps:
1.. Open Internet Explorer, and then click the Tools button.
2.. Click Manage Add Ons, and then click Enable or Disable Add Ons.
3.. Find and click the listing for i-Nav browser extensions.
4.. Under Settings, click Disable.
RoboForm Toolbar version 6.3.96--Opening multiple tabs in Internet Explorer
7 with the RoboForm Toolbar might cause the browser to stop responding when
it is used with Internet Explorer 7.
Cooxie Toolbar version 1.1.05--The Cooxie Toolbar might cause Internet
Explorer 7 to stop responding.
Diodia Toolbar version 2.4.01--Internet Explorer 7 might stop responding
when running this toolbar.
Ask Toolbar by AskJeeves version 4.0.1.1--Internet Explorer 7 might stop
responding when running this toolbar.
Yellow Pages Toolbar version 4.0--This toolbar does not work correctly with
Internet Explorer 7 installed.
Mojicon Dispenser--This toolbar can cause Internet Explorer 7 to stop
responding.
Logos Word Toolbar--Internet Explorer 7 can stop responding if there are
multiple tabs open with this toolbar installed.
Adelphia Toolbar version 1.2--Opening multiple tabs with this toolbar can
cause Internet Explorer 7 to stop responding.
Since FireFox is working fine but IE7 isn't displaying indicates that it is
an addon that is causing the problem (since the addons for FF and IE are
different beasts.)
You can run IE7 in no Addons mode - Start>Programs>Accessories>System
Tools>Internet Explorer (no Addons)
to test if indeed that an addon is causing the problemo.
Regards.

Thanks for the suggestions. So far no luck, including running in no-
addon mode. If I happen to figure it out, I'll post the results.
