URLs on the Desktop using Vista Utimate 64 bit
Quite a few of my Web Pages when dragged onto the desktop default back to a
standard icon (namely %SystemRoot%\system32\SHELL32.dll) instead of a least the Internet Explorer icon or the Website's icon. How can I make the icon reflect the Web Page? If I do try to change it myself it reverts back to the default. Thanks.

Hi Budgie Man, This will show you how to have a Internet shortcut on the desktop and keep the website's favicon instead of the default IE7 "e" icon. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/10...-shortcut.html Shawn -- Brink *There are no dumb questions, just the people that do not ask them.* '*Vista x64 Forums*' (http://www.vistax64.com/index.php?referrerid=2980) *Please post feedback to help others.*

Thanks anyway Brink but it is very convoluted as opposed to Windows XP where
you could just drag & drop URLs or their short cuts and they maintained the favicons. "Brink" wrote in message ...

The only way that you can do this in Vista is to set the Desktop View to "Classic Icons" size.
