Gaffer,
Understand. Think I did this. Still no work.
Do you have a W2K specific process for this.
Seems that I lost my crib sheet!

So, I've had this icon on my desktop for years that opens/calls my
NAS. Like: "http://10.0.0.x/".....
It does not work.
If I use the FF browser, and type in the address by hand, I can get
thru to the address. OK.
If I then drag the little 'doc' icon from the open browser window to
the desktop, the dragged icon is broken again! The red-X msg reads:
"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing
this task. Create an association in the Folder Options control
panel."
This what you need to do. Associate the desktop file with a web
browser.
Matters not whether I change the shortcut's icon or not.
Visited the "Folder Option control panel."
Confused I reamain!! MW or Virus still possible, but ESET indicates
no problem ATM.
Confused I be!! Ideas????
