This worked for me, too. Now I'm wondering why. Maybe it is because of the security
vulnerability in those two programs, which didn't have any effect until I turned
on Norton Internet Security. I lost the icons shortly after I turned on NIS, although
that could be coincidental. My wife's computer, which doesn't have NIS, doesn't
have the icon problem. Do all the people having this problem have NIS, or at least
a modern firewall program?
