Don't remember if it was a Win98 option, but I do know it works for me. I can move icons on the desktop and they remain wherever I move them.

New Question:

I have a 2 year old Dell PC that came with all of the necessary recovery and reinstall disks, but I thought I would update with a current drive image using NTI Drive Backup. I was amazed that it was so slow and would take so many CDs. I quit after a half hour as it appeared that it would take several hours and about 12 CDs. Is this normal for doing a drive image or is it the NTI software.

I think lock desktop items has been around since at least 98. The trick to getting it to appear at least on win 2k and I think on others as well but not sure. Right click choose "show web content". You can delete anything that appears but "lock desktop items" will be in the list now. You can right click and check it.
