Try using the "Favorites" menu. You can display that in your start menu, then you have all the websites right there. And to add them all you do is go to the page once and bookmark it.

ok really now... lets pack your computer back in the box and take back to the store, because there is no unearthly reason to have a shortcut of a url on your desktop.

Open IE, find the site you want, click on the FAVORITES menu, add to favorites.

Simple. I agree with Lactic.Acid
