Running OS 12.6.6 on an iMac. An icon appeared on my desktop. Get info says it's "void(0);.inetloc", It looks like Graphic Converter, which I have in the Dock, but is not turned on and hasn't been for weeks. Anybody know what I should do with this?

Was there a different icon there before this on appeared?
If nothing was there previously, you may have accidentally clicked in your browsers address bar, and dragged the address to your desktop. I do that occasionally.

To "support" Alan B's post, the following links explain what he is suggesting, I think.
I can't vouch for the solution, but it's well worth a try.

Yes that’s correct. As a Brit I’m more interested in fireworks on the 5th of November and the New Year
