Desktop won't stay on Classic

Hi:

I don't know if this is the right group, so with apologies . . .

I have an XP-Pro-SP2 System - Build 2600.

I prefer the Windows Classic theme, but about every thrid or fourth time I
start the machine, the desktop wil revert back to the default XP disktop.
Of course fixing it is easy, but it's getting old. Kaspersky, Adaware,
Spybot all report nothing.

The machine is a 6 month old home-brew with an Asus P5GD2-Pre MB - virgin WD
250 gB and 4 gB of RAM

Any ideas as to the casue and fix would be really appreciated.

Thanks much

R.click the desktop,properties,desktop,customize,web tab,chk the box
"lock desktop",close out.

Stalking is a Crime
Stalking charges are serious and
almost every state now has a strict stalking law.
