I would like to have one group of icons on the left side
of my screen and another group on the right. I can drag
them to do this, but the arrangement goes away the next
time I start. Can anything be done?

Many thanx.
 
Make sure you do not have "Auto-arrange" selected for
your desktop:

On any blank area of the desktop, RIGHT click for menu;
Choose "Arrange Icons By"
If "Auto Arrange" is checked, UNCHECK it.

I have good results with the following checked:
Align To Grid
Lock Web Items On Desktop (though it's not clear what
that does).
