Each time I sync, the BBC iPlayer springboard shortcut comes back

A web shortcut on the Springboard, not the iPlayer app.


Where is the shortcut hiding within iTunes so that it doesn't come back each time I sync?

PC, iOS 5, Windows 7 x64

Do you actually know anything about how the iPhone works because you are not really making sense

I created the shortcut on the Springboard/Home Screen by opening the website in Sarafi and choosing Add to Home Screen.


I had it there for a few months and used it freuently. During this time, I had synced my phone several times.


There is now an actual BBC iPlayer app so that Web shortcut is no longer needed.


I delete the shortcut on my iPhone but when I sync via. iTunes, the shortcut always reappears.

Each time I sync, the BBC iPlayer springboard shortcut comes back
