|
|
If I get IE to make a shortcut to PGPSW in Favourites, it has the PGPSW logo. If I then copy this to my desktop, W7 sticks in a stupid globe instead. On my lappy. its OK. Any ideas? |

You know about pinned sites and jumplists in Win7, right?

Thanks for that. I detest pinned sites as you can't open your home page from a new tab. I tried the hold down Shift whilst dragging the url icon to the desktop, which worked OK for different PGPSW pages and got the PGPSW icon, but when I tried with the New Posts URL, it just gave me the stupid world icon again. I have the same problem with Ebay as well. |

If I change the very last bit of the URL from 'search_id=newposts' to 'search_id=egosearch' , I get the PGPSW icon, cange it back to newposts and the damn icon changes back to the stupid globe. Arrrrrrgh |

Fixed the PGPSW new posts one by adding favicon.ico to the URL line as in 'http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=search&search_id=newposts/favicon.ico' Does not work for EBAY though |
