I've recently updated my old Win98 OS to Win2000 and I'm in need of
some freeware utility, if there is such an animal, which can save the
desktop icon state on my PC.

Any help / pointers / links would be greatly appreciated.

Try this...

Save the Icon State? What mean? Do you mean the icon layout on the
desktop? It is called layout on the Windows NT 4 Workstation CD-ROM. You
