    I renamed the 'My Computer' short cut icon as soon as I installed XP Pro some 12 months ago, and it has remained stable ever since. However in the last few days it has twice reverted to the default name.

    I have again re-labelled the icon and all remains stable - for now!

    Is there any simple reason why the lable should change?
