    desktop shortcut icons keep changing/moving


    i truely appreciate your help but i never never mess with the registry. it's something i learned a long time ago. i leave that for people in the know. which you probably are, but i would be the one possibly messing things up. i fixed the problem regarding not wanting to have to key in a password upon booting. yea me. but as for the icons moving, the start menu not closing and the search bar not working - i've decided i can live with these things until i find someone locally to help me out. they're probably upgrade bugs anyway. thanks again, you are appreciated!
