Hows this for dumb

[The PIT]

Just saw this at work today.
A bootmark file with no url associated with it. Therefore windoze doesn't think the file exists. You can't copy it you can't delete you can't rename it you can't even give it url in the properties.
Still this may explain some strange problems we've been having on the network. We run a managed NT service where the profile is stored on the user area. The favourites are copied back from the hard drive when they shut down or log off and if system can't copy the file back all the favourites disappear or some of them.

How about someone giving me a diskette with just a shortcuts on it (including shortcut to the diskette)?

remove it from the command line...if the user knows what it should be you can recreate it later.
