I've got a Windows 2000 Pro machine. 1600x1200 resolution on 21" monitor.

No matter what background I use on the desktop, photo, none, or one of the
included Windows backgrounds, I have a little Windows logo (the 4 colored
square) just above and right of center. By little, I mean about 1/4" at this
resolution. So, no matter how cool of photo or background I have, I have do
deal with this stupid thing.

If I click it, I get a gray box around it, but I can't move it, delete it,
cut it, and it does not respond to a right click.

Ideas?

That did it. Bizarre little thing and couldn't figure even what to
search for in the KB.
