From: don on 20 Jan 2010 17:00 I have several children, with access to my PC. I have no idea what caused my current, annoying problem. I now have a lot of unexpected/unwanted jpeg and other short cuts appearing on my desktop. Obviously I can delete those unwanted links; sure prefer to know how to stop them form being displayed/created. I have no idea how to stop that proliferation of Desk Top entries. Sure appreciate any advice... -don
