[Deskcut] What Am I doing wrong in DeskCut?

[Wesley Smith]

I love the idea of what I think DeskCut should do, but I can't get it to 
work. I tried updating to the newest version today and retrying it, but 
I keep getting the same results.

It installs OK, puts a "Create DeskCut" in the context menu and makes a 
shortcut on the desktop. HOWEVER: When I double click the shortcut 
(Windows XP Pro), FireFox opens, but does not display the targeted web 
page. It puts the correct page address as text in the browser page and 
the location of the shortcut file itself in the URL box:

Example: (with the Default "Use DDE" both checked and unchecked in the 
file association box);


*With the default "Use DDE" checked*
// The 4 lines below show up in the FireFox browser page. The 5^th line 
is what shows up in the URL  Box.
 
/[DEFAULT]
BASEURL=http://www.google.com/
[InternetShortcut]
URL=http://www.google.com//

In the URL line of FireFox:
_file:///c:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Wes/Desktop/Google.url_
 
*With the default "USE DDE" Unchecked*
 
What shows up in the FireFox browser is the same. The URL Box changes to 
the below line:
file:///c:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Wes/Desktop/Google%20no%20DDE%20w%20html.url 


What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!!
Wes
