???ICON VIRUS???

[RED WARRIOR]

ANYONE HAVE ANY TROUBLE WITH THEIR TRAY ICONS, IN THE LOWER RIGHT HAND CORNER OF THE SCREEN, (WHERE THE CLOCK NORMALLY APPEARS)? EVERYTIME I OPEN YAHOO MESSENGER, THE ICONS, (ALL OF THE ICONS), CHANGE THEIR APPEARANCE. FOR EXAMPLE, THE NORTON AUTO PROTECT MAY CHANGE INTO A SMILEY, OR THE YAHOO ICON, OR EVEN THE MUSIC MATCH ICON. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS WHILE Y-MESS. IS OPENED, BUT MINIMIZED, SOMETIMES AS I AM CLOSING OUT OF MESSENGER, AND SOMETIMES WHEN THE MOUSE CURSOR PASSES OVER THE TRAY ICONS. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THEM BACK TO WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE IS TO RE-BOOT. AND EVEN THEN, THE VERY NEXT TIME I OPEN YAHOO MESSENGER, THE SAME THING HAPPENS, AGAIN. ANYONE HAVE ANY SIMILAR STRANGE HAPPENINGS?

Could you perhaps tell us your OS?
And any other programs you have running when this happens.

The only strange occurance with the sys tray icons for me is sometimes the resolution of the images becomes REALLY poor and the icons are all blurry, so restarting does the trick....sounds like a very strange problem with ur computer!!

Why are you shouting? we are not deaf.
Not blind either come to think of it. Please use the caps lock key and post in lower case. Shouting is considered rude, your excused this one time...
