Well, I'm impressed! Foolestroupe really DOES have a lot of computer background. So much so that he is able to adapt Win 3.1 techniques to XP and accomplish in 7-8 roundabout steps what I usually do in 2-3.

But hey...as John says, if it works for you, it works. *grin* (uphill...both ways!)

Interesting....I tested that " copy the URL from the address bar - ...
Right click on the desktop, select "New" and then "Shortcut." trick, and put a link to this thread directly on my desktop. I'm SURE I never did anything like that before. I also doubt I'll ever need to do it again, but it's part of learning what CAN be done, and maybe the information will come in handy some day.

(BTW, for saving an entire web site..as opposed to single pages, as one can do right from the browser menu....http://www.httrack.com/ is one of the most amazing programs ever. (You knew I'd have a program, ...right?) It will create an exact copy of a site...or single page...for offline browsing. It can even be set to save ONLY one type of file...like .jpg or .mp3. I originally used it for copying Bruce Olson's site when it was not clear who would keep it safe.)
