Every couple of weeks my "custom" icons mysteriously revert back to the standard IE icon for internet shortcuts.File shortcuts remain the same, so it must involve something to do with how I save something, right? Any suggestions? Thanks Yea, I’ve been using different icons for my desktop; problem is, how do ya keep them there?
