Ok, something really weird happened the other day. After rebooting my computer and when it finally stopped booting, I double clicked on my explorer shortcut icon on my desktop.

To my great surprise, my computer opened the property window for the shortcut. It did the same for every icon I clicked on insteat of opening it the way it usualy does. I rebooted the computer and everything was fine again.

I taught it would never happen again but the next day, it happened again... and again... I mean... what the!"/$%?% is going wrong.

I'm using office pro 2003 SP 2.

PLease help me, it getting really annoying

[celcius]

Actually, any icon on my desktop or in my shortcut bar.

[gerryf]

there are icons (MY COMPUTER, NETWORK PLACES) and there are SHORTCUTS (pointers to programs)

All of these, or just one or the other?

[celcius]

All of these.
