Mutating icons

[TonyV]

The Microsoft Anti-Spyware icon in the tray mysteriously
turns blue sometimes from its normal orange...what does
that mean?

Thanks

He's using Microsoft's Web interface, not an NNTP reader.

The turning blue is a known bug.

This happens when a user RDP's into another machine running MWAS. I think it
can also happen during some fast user switching as well. The icon turning
blue means nothing.

Yes, the blue icon relates to Remote Desktop, Terminal Services, Remote
Assistance or Fast User Switching.

 

[Bill Sanderson]

It means that you have used either Fast User Switching, Remote Assistance,
or Remote Desktop. The change is not intentional--it's a bug.

You asked what news reader he was using.
I told you.
