Hello everyone. I've been using my parents computer for a while to do various usefull stuff. It has Windows 98 SE and has been on broadband with no virus scanner or firewall for months. Before that it was on dial up for years with no protection. Thankfully it's still going strong :p . Except that the icons for various things keep changing to different types. Like today all the Word document icons changed to Napster icons in Explorer and the "Get Quicktime" icon changed to an "MS-DOS app" icon. This has been going on for a while now but there are no other symptoms. Do you think it's a virus or maybe I'm just being paranoid? Any advice appriciated.

Steven.
