    Internet Link in start menu not valid

    I experienced a crash yesterday and since then the shortcut to Firefox (the shortcut created by Vista itself in Start menu properties/Customize/Internet Link) says it's not a valid WIN32 application. When I click OK it says the program has been moved, renamed or deleted. Clicking the actual firefox.exe works fine though. I even did a clean install of Firefox but Vista keeps coming up with this error. Changing the link to Internet Explorer works fine.
    It can easily be solved by manually creating a Firefox shortcut but i was wondering how I can fix this problem the right way.

    Hello Nisei,
    You could do a system restore to a point before the crash, this will put everything back the way it was before the crash. Hope this helps, please post your results, thanks.
