i know this sounds simple and dumb, but its been buggin me for a while. How
would you save a web page to your backround on the computer? It would look
like the web page, but if you tried to click on something, it wouldnt do
anything. does anybody know? (when you go to the desktop backround, it shows
all the icons and start menu and webpage, but it is just the backround.) I
am running vista. thx

Use screen capture to save it as a picture, and then set it as background..

Press the Print Screen (or Prt Scrn) key. Then open Paint (in the Accessories
folder)
and click Edit, then click Paste. The screen image will appear in Paint. You then
save the paint image and open the Computer icon to go to the folder where you saved
the image.
Right-click on the saved image and choose set as desktop (or similar message.)
