Wandering Desktop Icons

I run my desktop in Classic Mode. Every now and then, when I boot up my
system, my desktop icons are all in a different place. I rearrange them back
to where they belong and all is fine for a while. There doesn't seem to be
any pattern to the problem, with respect to time or other triggering event.
It occurred before and after SP2.

Thanks,

Bob
 
Bob,
This has been happening to me as well for the past several days. Out of the
blue, I blink and my icons are rearranged - doesn't even have to be a reboot
(I seldom shut down this machine). Haven't found any reason for it, but
some aid in restoring your layout can be found at:

Thanks Val, I'll give it a try. It would be nice to know what the problem is,
and fix it, rather than using work-arounds though.
