Vista keeps mixing up folder types and icons

Windows Vista keeps forgetting what properties I've assigned to specific folders. it seems be randomly reverting folders I've designated as "Music Details" to "Pictures and Videos", and vice versa, or reverting either folder type to "All Items". This isn't consistent between folders, nor can I find a common thread between occurrences. Also, you know how you can choose an image to serve as the thumbnail image for a particular folder? (The one that shows up looking like it's "inside" the folder icon.) These are getting mixed up as well. Some of my Music folders are displaying icons that I've selected to be the thumbnails for Picture folders, and vice versa. At times an entire string of them will all convert to using the same thumbnail... even though that image is not actually contained in any of those folders! What is going on?
