Dana,
I can't remember if you're using Word or not, but if you are, you
might want to consider another hot key for IE. A while back I
discovered that alt-control-I is a hot key in Word 2000 for
overtype/insert and is a toggle. Somehow, I didn't have a problem
with my Win 98 se machine with alt-control-i as the hot key for IE,
but I came up with alt-control-E for it when I discovered the hot key
for overtype mode.

I'm doing exactly the same, only on a shortcut on the start that

the IE executable. There's no reason why that shouldn't work equally
well,
and it does for other shortcuts I've created, with other hotkey letter
assignments. And, I have the same problem with alt-ctrl-I if I assign
it to
the IE shortcut in Programs, accessories, Communications.

I just made a hot key using I for internet explorer alt-control-I..
Maybe it's your method of creating the hotkey?
I did start menu, P for programs, I for internet explorer then I
pressed the
applications key and up arrowed to properties and entered on it that
landed
me in the target area to make a shortcut I tabbed to the box and put I
then
tab to apply and alt A and then back to the ok and spacebared it..

alt-ctrl-I, which I would like to use for internet explorer, will not
work.
Neither will alt-ctrl-L, wherever I assign it. There are others, but I
haven't made a full list of them. As I said, my initially thought was
that
these were already assigned, somehow. But I can't find any record of
them,
using HKSearch. I wonder if they could be preempted by some software I
have
installed? but, as hksearch won't tell me this, I don't know how to
determine if this might be the case.
Thanks.
Blessed Be,
Dana
