| 549888 | 2007-05-15 02:03:00 | Using this "wonderful" browser, for a while after ugrading from IE 6. Now in IE 6 you were able to go file\save to desktop\ for a shortcut with the websites icon (for example MS had a M logo for an icon). Now IE 7 seems to lack this and i save the page as a .mht and i get that ugly IE logo. is there a way like ie6 to get the website logo, (lke google wud hav a G) without resorting to something like another browser? | aidanmaz (7180) | ||
| 549889 | 2007-05-15 04:44:00 | Unfortunately this is impossible, you'll need to resort to another (getfirefox.com) browser (http:) ;P btw, I did a quick check in IE7 if there was a solution but couldn't get it working the way you described. Also, an .MHT file is not a shortcut, rather a downloaded web page with the page assets (images, css and scripts, etc) consolidated to one file by way archiving or "zipping". |

Yeap. easy as pie. Right click anywhere on the page (not on a link though) click create shortcut. As long as the page has a picture, and is fully loaded, it will appear on your desktop looking very sexy. Thats the one thing i hate about firefox is its not as easy as IE7 to do this - creata a shortcut on the desktop.:thumbs: |

Just click and drag the icon next to the URL in the address/location bar to the desktop, or wherever you want. However, I tried what you said earlier and it still didnt use the favicon as the desktop icon for the shortcut link. I'm using IE7 in Vista so that might be why... |
