[nfbcs] Pinning a Site to the Taskbar with IE 9 Using the Keyboard

[Mike Freeman]

That works for programs but isn't always a sure thing with web site
addresses. The choice to pin it to the taskbar or, for that matter, the
start Menu, sometimes doesn't show up.

The easiest way to pin anything to the taskbar is as follows. Go to its
icon, or hit start button and down arrow to it (do NOT open), then hit
applications key and down arrow to pin to task bar...you will also see pin
to start menu and if you desire you can send to desktop....great features
