Internet Explorer Script Error

My Computer reboots in Recovery desk Mode. When I click on active Desk top. I receive error message that reads: Internet Explorer Script Error : An error has occurred in the script on this page: Line 65 Char 1: Error Object doesn't support this action: Code 0: Url: File///C:documents%20%settings/owner/application%20 data/Microsoft/Internet%20Explorer/Desktop.htt Do you want to continue running scripts on this page ... Doesn't matter what I reply yes or no message just goes away and recovery desktop is still present. Please help me to fix this problem......


Thank you in advance for your support in this matter...

desktop.htt pretty much controls the size and position of your desktop. IE7 is a little bit incompatible with the old profile you may have had already. To fix it go Start >Run, type and enter regedit
Go to this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\SafeMode\Components
Change the value of DeskHtmlVersion to zero instead of decimal 272.

Close the explorer window, rclick your desktop and click Refresh

Gustav, your solution was a big help for me. Het werkte en zonder jou had ik de zaak niet opgelost.
THANK YOU!

I tried doing these steps but when I opened up Microsoft I don't have "Internet Explorer" in the folder. I am stuck, so where else do I look to get rid of this problem?

That was a great solution by Gustav - I was fed up with my local helpdesk who wanted to create a new user profile! I love this forum.
