  I think you might have read something that's not there, I just did a =
search of all the messages here and nobody said they have icons that = when
you click on something nothing happens.

       What does "XP is slow resolving NETBIOS shares" mean?  My guess =

network capture to diagnose it?

      You're co-opting my problem (g).  My drive icons are never =

      XP is so slow resolving NETBIOS shares that I call that a separate =
problem.
      I have no special problems with CD icons, and I don't share them.  =
I usually
      have no mapped drives.  I'm peer only, and my Snap! 1000 and 2000 =
are hardly
      servers in the usual sense - just cross-platform file bins.  My =
fugitive
      icons are nearly all shortcuts in a folder on the desktop that I =

      and that has no special system status.  I haven't tried shift-del, =
but I
      also have problems with rename and a simple move of the icon not =
taking in
      the displayed large icon representation.  And I NEVER see it in =
list or
      detail view.
