What is the command line (target field) for what program (and its
parameters) get ran when you use that shortcut?

Are you directly calling the iexplore.exe file, as in:"c:\program
files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" www.ancestry.com

my shortcut to

"c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" www.ancestry.com
will not work (fails to connect).

and my shortcut to

http:\www.ancestry.com

connects, but acts the same way - ie minimized window, and maximizing
it is not remembered.


By the way, maximized (for a window with borders) and fullscreen (for a
borderless window) are NOT the same thing. In IE, hit the F11 key to
toggle between normal and fullscreen view modes.

I never knew this. Thanx
