What exactly is the desktop item you are trying to drop into the start menu?

I have a desktop item that i am trying to move into my START list.

As i drag it through the lists it gives the horizontal line which basically
means that is where it would successfully drop. However when i reach the
place I want (the startup directory, fwiw) and release the mouse button I
get a dialogue box saying "Windows cannot create a shortcut here. Do you
wish to create a desktop icon? Y/N.

Since I have done the same thing dozens of times before, this baffles me.
(Not just the Startup sub-folder, it will not drop onto the START list
anywhere.)

Any ideas?
