Internet shortcuts/Vista

I have Vista Home Premium. How come I can't send an Internet shortcut from my
favorites menue - or from anywhere else I know of - to my desktop? I click on
send to and then desktop shortcut but nothing happens. Also, how can I change
the Internet shortcut from the generic big green e? The properties menue for
chang icon only has I think, four lame choices.
