IDEA: Lock icons in place on desktop
Josh:
I want a simple program that can lock all icons on my desktop to their current position. My daughter is learning to use a computer and it is annoying when she moves all my icons trying to double click on her dora the explorer game icons. Any ideas for this?

i've seen some freeware tools that do this.. i'll try to remember the names if no one beats me to it.
