Default Odd entry in My Network Places

Xref: kermit microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web:190782

Am using a WinXP PC. Under My Network Places, I wondered how the below
www.companynamehere.org (not its real name) website entry got in there, what
I must have clicked to get it there, and if I can just delete it?

My Network Places
entrepreneurship on www.companynamehere.org
SharedDocs on John's PC
SharedDocs on Bill's PC

It's also under...

My Network Places
Entire Network
Web Client Network
Www.companynamehere.org

Thanks

This is shortcut to so called "web folder". Nothing specific for adware, perfectly normal.
For example if you have web storage at msn.com, it will look exactly this way,
and provide faster access to your data.
Yes you can delete these shortcuts.
