Creating desktop shortcuts

[Arnold R]

How do you create a desktop shortcut to an internet web page in Vista? It
doesn't seem to work like XP did, which was quite straightforward.

Thanks.

Just drag the URL from the address bar to the desktop.

You can right click anywhere on the web page and select create shortcut.

Thanks for the reply. That's one of the things I tried. It didn't word for
me.

Paul,
Thanks for the reply. That was what I did on XP, which always worked. I
don't seen that option on the menu when I right click.

Hi Arnold,
I'm not sure what is wrong since that option is available to me in Vista
Home premium. I'll check around on the web and see what I can find.

Paul,

I tried it again and it worked fine this time. Don't know what I was doing
wrong before. Thanks for the help. Sorry it took me so long to reply.
