Default Changing desktop icons!!???

Off topic question..but still important. All the icons on my desktop have changed to a sheet of paper with a hand and a pen. I have rebuilt the desktop once. That put the icons back to the way they should be. But the next day when I booted up my sytem the screwed up icons were back. I have run norton disk doctor...no problems. No virus either. Any ideas on how to fix or what is wrong?

I am running PT's 5 on a G4 320 megs of ram.


Thanks

macguy

You need a copy of Alsoft's Diskwarrior (www.alsoft.com). It handles desktop file corruption WAY better than anything out there. I always run it proir to using any other file utility.

You could start with a copy of the free utility TechTool, from www.micromat.com
Sometimes does a better job of rebuilding the desktop than the Option/Command restart.
