After uninstalling Firefox and clicking the box that asked about uninstalling bookmards too I can't open my old links that I've had for years.(IE) Please help!

The only links that are usable are the ones I had on a Yahoo toolbar on my IE homepage which I never deleted or changed during this whole process. I've tried System Restore and a ClickFree Restore. All the Clickfree did was put hundreds of icons on my desktop that look like they go on from here to timbuck two. System Restore said the restoration failed - numerous times. Not sure if I should use Recuva - I'm a little gunshy now to try anything. Please help. Thanks SO much!

The Solution: Tools - Internet Options - Program Tab ... and there was the Default Web Browser option. It said that IE was NOT the default browser. I changed that and IT WORKED.
A simple and sweet fix ... all thanks to: Martin Brinkmann a journalist from Germany who founded Ghacks Technology News Back in 2005. I found him through this article:
