This does not seem to be connected to any particular operating system. The crux of the problem is found at in RegEdit at User>Software>Microsoft>Windows>CurrentVersion
>Policies>Explorer Change NoSaveSettings to 00 00 00 00. Restart your computer, put the icons in the order that you want them to be in, then restart again. This time the icons should remain in the order you placed them.

I have about 5 things on my quick launch tool bar in Win98se and everytime I start my computer up they are in a different than I would like. I manually rearrange them to they way I like but the next time I reboot they re-order themselves again. How do I stop this?
