I have an issue with a computer who's desktop icons will start to shake (1
foloowing another) and after clicking the icon, the computer will freeze.
The computer will not boot up for several attempts following the lock-up.
We have recently discovered that hitting escape will cause the icons to stop
shaking. I have ran a full virus scan on the machine with nothing turning
up. I have formatted and reinstalled the OS. after recreating the profile,
the symptoms have returned. Please advise if you have ever seen this. The
Windows 2000 machine is on a domain account connecting to an Exchange
server. A full scan of Exchange has also been performed with nothing
turning up. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks

Jeremy
 
Sounds like a virus I had 6 months or a year ago. Sorry, I
can't remember the name of it. One of the pc's at work got
it. Go to Norton's or McAfee's site. With a little
searching you should be able to find the fix tool. Are you
current on antivirus software?
