Desktop icons

[Thomas Bennett]

Does anyone know why desktop icons change on their own?

  My Explorer Icon is a little page with a fancy A in the middle which isn't
even embedded in the executable file.  My Dreamweaver icon is now my 3Com
icon but in a circle, the Fireworks icon has turned shades of blue instead
of the red shades, and the RoamAbout Access Point icon looks like the little
screen from PowerPoint.  Other icons on the desktop are correct and haven't
even changed colors.  This had happened on my old Windows 98 machine and now
on my Windows 2k machine.  Again the changed icons are not the icons that
are embedded in the executable.

I'll try a reboot and see if they revert back to the correct icons, but if
you know why this happens I would appreciate the information.  Desktop
Gremlins, I guess.

PS.  My antivirus program and definition files are up to date.
