This problem existed on a Compaq Presario 1500 Laptop running XP and I
believe IE 6 for some time. Had a newer and faster desktop so had let it go
for some time. A co-worker suggested uninstalling IE and then reinstalling
it. While trying to figure out how to uninstall in add and remove programs,
found Yahoo toolbar and uninstalled it as a trial. Bingo!! That took care
of it. Thanks for responding!

YW. Is this machine fully patched at Windows Update?

OT: Required reading IMHO before installing IE7 =>

Sandi's Installation Tips <= FOLLOW THESE TIPS TO THE LETTER!
http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install

And I strongly recommend using
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/ie/getitnow.mspx as the
installation source, not Automatic/Windows Update.

Tip: Save the installer to your desktop, do not Run it.

Make *certain* that you check in at Windows Update immediately after
installing IE7 and install any critical updates offered. If Optional
Updates category offers Root Certificates update, I recommend installing it
to take full advantage of IE7's additional security.
