My desktop icons are changing arbitrarily.
IE is now the classic "e" but the infill is the MS OL icon.
 
it may not be a virus - that happens when the icon cache is corrupt. Have
you rebooted recently? Did you open any of the attachments you received by
email?
 
Thanks, Diane. Yes. Yes.

Avast! discovered and eradicated something called Win32:kuang2. And here
I've been blaming my cable company for my slow i-net access - now I'm blazing
again, with accurate icons, quickly opening OL, and all.

But listen - I am very interested in what you suggested about the icon
cache. Please elaborate. Thanks.

As an MVP, do you knolw what happened to the "Was this post helpful" check?
I don't see it any more.
