Re: Home Computer access to the internet

I recently downloaded AOL 9.0VR on to my computer. After I did, I can no longer access the internet via a shortcut on my desk top. To access the internet, I now have to run another program such as Outlook Express and then go to my shortcuts and then to the internet. This happened after I downloaded AOL 9.0VR. Previously, I was running AOL 9.0. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
