How to change Desktop Shortcut Address

kah22

I've lifted a Netflix icon to create a shortcut to my Netflix account but while it does open Netflix the shortcut shows up as hhttp://www1.iconomize.com/redirect/netflix . I'm concerned that this is some kind of marketing/spy tool.

I've tried to change the address by right clicking the icon going to 'shortcut' and attempting to change the address. However, the target box where the address is is greyed out so I can't change it. What should I do?

As always many thanks for you suggestions and I don't know how I would survive without you guys.

Delete it.
right click on your desktop > new > shortcut. and create a new one to where you want it to go.

You may want to get and run malwarebytes - http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ as although it's not dangerous (at least I don't think it is) it is crapware and can cause issues with your computers speed.
