Thanks, Diane. Yes. Yes.
Avast! discovered and eradicated something called Win32:kuang2. And here I've been blaming my cable company for my slow i-net access - now I'm blazing again, with accurate icons, quickly opening OL, and all. But listen - I am very interested in what you suggested about the icon cache. Please elaborate. Thanks. As an MVP, do you knolw what happened to the "Was this post helpful" check? I don't see it any more. "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote: it may not be a virus - that happens when the icon cache is corrupt. Have you rebooted recently?
