Firefox is set as my default browser. Firefox shortcut icon disappeared from taskbar. Only way to open Firefox is to click on "run as administrator" from startup menu or go to "All Programs" list and click on "Run" from "Open File - Security Warning" message block. Would like to restore the shortcut icon to the taskbar.
