Hi anyone:

When I right click on a page that I want to save to my
desktop in Windows Explorer as a shortcut; the shortcut
is created on my desktop, but when I try to double click
it all that comes up is my printer Icon to print the
shortcut instead of going to that website.

Any suggestions???

THanks

Bree
