For Example in "Target:" I have: C:\xxxxxxxx\flashplayer_32_sa.exe http://hi2.horseisle.com/client/HI2Client.swf?SERVER=216.98.148.87&PORT1=44344&PORT2=443&USER=Jor
You can add the &USER=name to the end like i have to save typing username at login.
Click "OK" at the bottom. Now, you should be able to doubleclick that icon to save time :)
You can repeat process for any other servers you play on.
