It does go to the site if you click it but does not use the logo of the website like it used to. Any suggestions? Thanks. v Do you know how to cut & paste an icon from an internet website onto the desktop using Vista i.e. ebay icon, etc. I have tried to right click on the webpage and create shortcut but the only thing that shows up on the desktop is a page with a small window in it with the name of the website.
