Hi Richard,

I would suggest using the Internet Explorer Repair tool first.
1. Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then
double-click Add/Remove Programs.
2. On the Install/Uninstall tab, click Microsoft Internet Explorer,
click Add/Remove, click "Repair the current installation of
Internet Explorer", and then click OK.

If the repair tool is missing that means there is an older version of
IE installed. In this case I would suggest upgrading to a new version
via Windows Update. http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp

If the above does not work, take a look at this article.
Err Msg: Internet Explorer Cannot Find the Active Desktop..
