The link is then found and displayed. The error box remains and has to be closed, however. Wish FF would allow 'create a link/shortcut on desktop' for links like IE Bo Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. see above 2. 3. Actual Results: see above Expected Results: no error box, since the link is known to exist and is found OK

Sounds right. Some people are still seeing a related problem in newer builds in bug 254525, though. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 246078 ***
