Further information.

The Favorites folder on my laptop is corrupted. All entries, when selected, bring 
up the printer dialog. I have checked the folder properties against my desktop PC 
and they are identical. I have exported the contents of the folder to a "Bookmarks.htm" 
folder and checked the URL's. Everything appears OK and selecting an entry takes 
me to the correct website. Importing the bookmarks back into the folder restores 
the error situation.

I was subjected to a severe spam attack about a week ago and have been very active 
identifying viruses and spyware and getting rid of them. I suspect that in the process 
I have deleted a key file but an attempt to repair Windows has not helped the situation.
