That's alright ;) I've seen things like that, too, while working as a
trainer for a consulting company. There's a funny story that's
crossing my mind... maybe not everyone knows that trick:
Someone complained to a coleague of mine he couldn't use any of the
icons on his desktop. My coleague tried to figure it out (that was on
a Windows NT course ;), but it wasn't possible to click on any icon.
He rebooted, tried everything. Then he found it out: Some other guy
had taken a screenshot of the empty desktop, switched to a higher
resolution, moved all the icons away from the usual desktop space,
reestablished the old resolution and put in the screenshot as the
desktop bsckground picture. Good idea to frighten you younger sister
;)
Thanks for your testing, also to Ali.
