Thanks Mike. I'll give it a shot. It also occurred to me to create the
desktop icon with IE and switch the default browser to FF so that
clicking on it brings up the FF version, which for this one site is
preferable to IE.
Keep on truckin'

Hi Jim,
The only way I was able to create a website desktop shortcut was doing the
following:
1. With the website of choice open press, Control + S, to open the save
dialogue.
2. Tab 1 time into a list of save options, & arrow up / down to the option
you want.
3. Tab to the save button & press enter, or press, Alt + S.
This will save a shortcut to the folder, or wherever your saved downloads go
to by default. Now copy it or cut it from the downloads location, & paste
it to your desktop.
I'm not going to swear that the steps above will work every time because
they sure as hell didn't for me! LOL But, other than saving as a Bookmark
& copy / pasting this was the best I could do.
Take care.
Mike
