Hi chetsa,
Without knowing exactly what steps you've tried, the only thing I can suggest is that you take a look at the Knowledge Base article Create a desktop shortcut to a website. This has pretty detailed instructions and screenshots.
Hopefully this helps!
Does if work if you keep the Ctrl key pressed while dragging the URL?

I get a circle with a slash in it when I try that.
