A little FrontPage fun trick for those that like to tinker.

[Steve Easton]

For those who have disk based webs, located in My documents\My webs or
some other place on the drive.

What makes your web folder have the blue globe is a hidden desktop.ini
file
contained inside the folder.
Set your machine to show hidden files and you'll see it.

Opened in Notepad it contains this:

[.ShellClassInfo]
IconFile=_vti_pvt/fpdbw.ico
IconIndex=0
ConfirmFileOp=0
InfoTip=Stores your local web site

If you have made a favicon.ico file for your website and it's in the
root folder, change the line:
IconFile=_vti_pvt/fpdbw.ico
to this:
IconFile=favicon.ico

You can also change the text in this line:
InfoTip=Stores your local web site
to read whatever you want, such as:
InfoTip=mywebsitename

Save the file and when you're browsing for your web site in Windows or
FrontPage, the blue globe folder icon will be replaced with your
favicon, and when you hover the mouse over the folder the text you
entered will show.

Hope someone has some fun with this.
