Corrupt URL's

Hi,

I'm finding the Vista is routinely corrupting its URL's found in its
Favorites folder. These URL's are for Virtual Server 2005 and therefore
when they are selected with IE, they are continuously updated (presumably by
IIS or VS). The Favorites are redirected to an HDD on the Windows 2003
server.

The damaged URL file will have the correct byte size, but all the data
within will be spaced out.

Anyone have a solution to this problem?
 
Thanks a lot!

It sort of amazes me that the "file type" tab of the Folder Options has been
removed for nothing in turn, but well..

regards,
Amaury
 
Hello Bob,

Thank you for your post. This is George and I will be assisting you in this
post.

Sorry, I am still a bit unclear about what the issue is. To better address
this issue, could you help collecting the following information?

Information Needed:
==================

1. Can other shortcut in your Favorites folder work?

2. Can the problematic Favorites short still lead to the "Virtual Server
Administration Website", even after the issue occurs? If not, what is the
exact error message?

3. Can you open the "Virtual Server Administration Website" by clicking
"Start"-> "All Programs"-> "Microsoft Virtual Server"-> "Virtual Server
Administration Website"?

4. Please create a new Favorites shortcut for the same "Virtual Server
Administration Website", and wait for a while. Does the issue always
re-occur?

5. I am a bit confused with the symptoms of "The damaged URL file will have
the correct byte size, but all the data within will be spaced out". Could
you please help collect several screen shots (before and after the issue
occurs) to demonstrate the exact symptoms?

If anything is unclear, please feel free to let me know. We look forward to
your reply. Thanks!

Sincerely,
George Yin

Hi George,

The problem of corrupt url's (that are redirected with my Favorites to the
domain controller), seems to have settled down with Vista SP1 RC.

I'll reopen this incident if the problem returns. Thanks!

Some of my URL's seem to be corrupted by Google. If you click on them you
are re-directed to Google. I have tried deleting and re-installing Google
but even after deleting it the same thing happens. I also at times get this
message if I do a search or my favourites on Google.
"Google
Error

Not Found
The requested URL // was not found on this server."
I have Windows XP.
Has anyone any idea how to solve the problems.
Thanks
Jeff
