No more if I ever could.

Now Win7 wants to move my icons around every now and then

How do I make them stay as I want them to.

Thanks.


Right-Click View Align Icons to Grid.

This settings never moves icons "every now and then". The problem is
there are some idiots like that Arlen Pedo who has removed almost
everything from his machine because he stupidly believed that Microsoft
is spying on him and recording everything about his activities of
abusing young boys.

I'm not getting your images; and how do I wordwrap
your curious format?
