Internet Explorer Favorites not working properly/ IE 8 partly blanked out
When using either IE6 or IE7, clicking on a link in the favorites menu produces a message " Windows cannot find '(null)' etc.
If I then click the message OK button, the page loads completely and IE works properly thereafter (except for the favorites links).
This may be because I installed IE8 but this never worked properly in that the icons appeared at the top of the page but with a black background so that any text was invisible.
Is there an obvious reason for the 2 problems (are they connected?) and is there a simple solution? I would like to use IE8 if possible.

This solution is only available to members.

The solution for the problem in IE7 often is to uninstall IE7 (and reinstall if you wish).
