Defragment does nothing?! by
Robert Macy
Win98SE historically ran a defragment on the C: drive, but now sits for

Some Icons change when copied from Desk top to Quick launch toolbar. When I
open the quick launch folder all icons in the folder are the same as
displayed on the Desktop. The icons change when dragged from desk top to
quick launch toolbar. Anybody know why?
