When IE Tab2 is active on a web page (in IE mode), I drag the URL to my desktop to create a link to the web site. Then, when I try to d-click that desktop shortcut, it does not work because it has "chrome://ietab2/content/reloaded.html?url=" added in front of the URL. 1. How do I get IE Tab2 to save it properly. 2. or, how do I get windows to recognize "chrome protocol"? Thanks.

You probably need to modify the link in the shortcut and remove the chrome part and the quotes in the internet shortcut leaving only the URL to make it work if dragging the link adds the IE Tab2 chrome protocol.
