Have a question.... Running Windows95, When I "right-click" my mouse on
any page in Netscape Gold V3.01, a drop-down menu displays with:
Back
Forward
Add Bookmark
Internet Shortcut
Using Internet shortcut, I can easily create a desktop icon to quickly
get to that page again.
Problem:
Multiple users in my area were just upgraded to Windows95 and when they
do the same "right-click", the Internet Shortcut option is not there.
We reinstalled Netscape and the problem remains. I'm puzzled.
The $64K question is:
Do I need to enable/install some option either within Netscape or
Windows95 for them to get the same functionality? I'm trying to
get everyone running the same.
Regards,
Jim Thomann

I'd suspect a problem with the Internet Shortcut Support DLL (Url.dll
located in the Windows\System folder).
Several products install their own version of the file, and it may be
altered, corrupted or missing. You could start by renaming it (if it
exists on the problem systems) and reinstalling it from the CD.

Donna,
Bingo!!!! I looked on 2 of the newly upgraded systems and neither
had the "url.dll" file. I copied it down and it worked perfectly!
(Didn't even have to reboot the PC). Many thanks for the fix,
for now I can get all these users (75 +) on the same page.
Regards,
Jim T.
