Default Browser Problem

I recently downloaded SpywareBlaster and it worked great, but almost immediately I noticed that the icons in my IE Favorites would change from the normal IE icon to a generic icon if I went to select one of the icons. Initially I thought it was SpywareBlaster, so I uninstalled it, but now I'm not sure what caused it. I use Norton Antivirus Corps Edition, it's up-to-date with all the definitions and I don't find anything during a scan. Does anyone have any ideas?

Default Re:Browser Problem

Hi wjaelliot,

Welcome at Wilders.

Can you try this program and see if it helps?
It stores the favicons so that they don't get wiped out when you empty your Temp folders.
