Hi I have a dell Lattitude D600 laptop running windows 2000 SP4. The problem
I'm having is when I add a new program the desktop icon is added but has a
calculator over the top. Changing icons does not help the calculator stays
with the ne icon. Document icons, like word, excel, or pdf display ok. Any
ideas how to correct this problem.

Thanks CbunchBob

Control Panel|Display|Appearance|Advanced and try changing the icon size by
one, apply changes, then go back in and change the size back. This should
cause the operating system to rebuild the shelliconcache file which may be
in a corrupted state.
