I think what I am looking for doesn't exist as a vist option. As I remember
it I think Windows 98 had a provision for locking the icons in position. I
don't see it on XP.
Thanks anyway.

Stay far far away from registry cleaners. They do more harm than good.
Your issues have nothing to do with entries in the registry. The registry
is a data table for the OS. Cleaning will have minimal or negative results.

MS has not created one. Consequently, this has become the default
group.

You really can't make Norton 2010 the enemy. Since Norton Internet Security
2009 the company's product has been a fantastic revolution from what they did
previously. It's not my job to tell you how good they are. Just try their new
product. I have bought a three-licence version and so far I am very pleased.
Oh, I should add that this is on my brand-new Windows 7 computer, running

OCR programs tend to work closely with the OS. If this is a very old
application, it is probably not compatible with Vista and you will need
an up-to-date OCR program.
