In the shortcut, there should be an option to "open

Me said in his 2nd post that this didn't work. His
problematic shortcut doesn't specify what program to run
so the URL type gets associated with a handler (the web
browser) through the registry. I figure he should try
deleting the bad shortcut and recreate a new one to see
if the new one works; else, use a shortcut that specifies
iexplore.exe to load the site since he said that works.

Right, I agree. Sorry I missed that.

I was wondering too if there might be a mixup in some minds over the
difference between creating a folder or a shortcut on the desktop. With a
shortcut you get to give a starting folder, window size and flags for what
the window shows that opens.
Folders don't allow those niceties.

Just a thought.

HTH,
