Main PC--XP Pro SP3, SM1.19 with Multizilla and IETab. Been using SM for years, occasional posts here. Everything works as expected.

New laptop--Windows 7, SM 2.05 with Coral IE Tab. Since the profile in SM2 was created on a clean PC, nothing was inherited from the Main PC. I manually copied only the bookmarks file from Main to Laptop, and SM2 reads it fine. However, one shortcut (wife uses daily) acts wierd: first time it's clicked, an incorrect page opens in the active tab. Once that page renders and you click on the original shortcut a second time, the expected page opens. If you close the browser then re-open, you get the same behavior--first click wrong page, second click right page. And I think cookies are OK, 'cause when the correct page does finally open, it's got a 'Welcome...' message at the top with her username, showing she's already logged to her own area.

This same shortcut works perfectly every time on the Main PC.

On both PCs, the Home Group is set to the same 4 tabs, all part of the BBC's page sets in the UK. The URL in question is http://uk.pogo.com/home/home.do?pageSection=header_home. On the laptop, the first page rendered is http://www.pogo.com, which is US-based. I've flushed the DNS cache, tried changing the shortcut properties in various ways, including doing an nslookup of the domain 'uk.pogo.com' and using the IP address directly in the shortcut, but no joy. It always goes to the US page first.

I tend to discount DNS issues, because A) the main PC's SM 1.19 isn't behaving like this, and B) IE on both machines renders the correct page every time.

Any ideas??
