Mark, We weeren't refering to desk top icons. We were referring to little icons listed before the site's name in IE favorites. I'm back to Netscape 4.76 now though because I can't get rid of IE 5.5 and it bogs down on me usually after about 40 minutes. I deleted IE 5.5, downloaded IE 5.01 sp 1 and ran the setup but IE 5.5 still loaded. I like Netscape better but since I'm starting A+/MCSE classes full time March 19th I figured I should familarize myself with IE and Outlook which I have done. I still need to review IE Express a little though, it has less in common with Outlook than I assumed it would. Now getting back to the desk top. I drag my icons around whatever image I'm using for wallpaper but occasionsally they load on the left in alphabetical order even though I don't have any of the arrange icon boxes checked. It doesn't happen too often so I just drag them back where I want them. I have no idea what triggers their alphabetical migration. Oh, and I haven't needed Safe Mode so far this year.

mr mark, FWIW I frequently get unique bookmark icons [yahoo and other sites] that last a while but inevitably are replaced by the IE icon after normal pc usage. I live with it. Gottfried
