Sorry for the capitals used, but I don't want to be confused
with the bloody gambling sites who dump a bunch of icons on
your desktop without you wanting that.
However, the system itself is brilliant as a backup system where
the url could include dynamic variables.
So, I know how to write txt and xml files to the server when certain
scripts are executed, but I was wondering, is it possible to use
CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") to write an .url file
to a person's desktop (when a button is clicked)?
To take it one little bit further, is it possible to have it create
an .url file with custom icon? (This is optional, I'm more interested in creating the icon on demand to a "virtual" location (which should be the user's desktop - or, if possible, a location he/she can set themselves)
Greets & thanks, Dominic

Ok :) I will stick to a text url generator from which they just have to copy and paste the url or mail the link to themselves :)
Greets & thanks,

Note that that will only work in IE.
