Good one, aisleman, but you have to do that when you are at Forums Home; otherwise it just creates a shortcut right back to where you were when you created it. In my case that was this thread!
Great tip , though!
A really neat trick would be to be able to convert the PPRuNe logo, which can be downloaded as a gif or bmp file, to an icon file so that the icon for your PPRuNe shortcut would be specific and individual instead of like all the other IE shortcuts.
Assuming that the Bosses would not object to the logo being copied to thousands of desktops around the world.
