Everyone of the lnks has the .url Strange problem which I've not been able to create in my own IE6 on Win98 and also not found anything on-line that references it !! If you are using WinXP then it could be to do with some security setting but not having a WinXP system to check I'm lost on this one, sorry :-( -- Best regards, Barry mailto:barry@yobunny.co.uk MicroSoft Free Zone running Xandros 2.0 Deluxe
