Okey, I went over there a few moments ago after work and it's the damndest thing I've ever seen.
He has about 25 icons on his desktop and when he passes the mouse over them on the way to a folder they all flicker and re align their positions. They stay in the grid okey but change position all over and whatever icon is in the upper left corner, for example, is now down in the middle somewhere.
Auto arrainge is checked.
This started sometime last night. He has DSL, no firewall and has not updated or run NAV for the last 6 months since I went over and did it for him.
He said DSL installer told him it wasn't necessary....so who am I to tell him different....
If I'm home alone here now, while I'm typing this, you can't hear me screaming, he absolutly refuses to do what is needed or pretends not to understand the need......... Tomorrow I'll update his NAV and run it and I also have a copy of the current Trend stuff too.
I'll let you all know....

EEYOUAHAARAGHUUGHE no smiley strong enough to express my.......
