Terrible hanging shortcuts accidentally crossed...

[meteorquake]

Few things are more annoying than dragging a file and accidentally passing a shortcut to an offline network drive or executable, whereupon it hangs for ages before releasing you to continue. It's just done it now in Everything much as happens in Explorer.

Is there any way of preventing this happening? I do not know who invented this horrible idea and then let it persist. As far as I'm concerned links should only be evaluated if you drop something onto them or launch them...

Does Everything show the network drive as offline (grayed out) ?

Everything 1.5.0.1384a will no longer use offline items as a drop target.
