Shortcut on the desktop icons ALL have the picture of the internet 'E '.
I have recently upgraded to Windows Vista and had to create all new shortcuts on my desktop to Web sites I use a lot, which is Fandango, my children's school. Photos of ALL my icon shortcuts are the symbol of the internet 'e '. Even Fandango (I want to see the big red icon "F") not "e" photo icon I right clicked the icon on the desktop and went into properties. Can I change the picture, but I just need my official technical icons (which I don't). I should be able to change to allow the Web site icons, but I'm not. Help for just a MOM with questions!

Every time after I get a Firefox Nightly update and run it, it will display the next page:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/nightly/firstrun/?oldversion=30.0 which is fine.
But when it opens this page, all my desktop icons go clear/white and one by one, they all return with their correct icons. And all this happens in a few seconds.
Why is the operation of Firefox every night for the first time, my desktop icons?I suspect that you have both nightly and Firefox version installed?
"The Firefox 'about' shows 30.0. and I've now checked for updates and are now running 33.1.1"
It's different from what you have first published here with!
Firefox 33.1.1 represents the latest version - a 32-bit version.Whereas, the version you first posted here with was a generation of 64-bit channel every night from July. Every night is for "Alpha-testers" and is updated every day, where the name of "night".
Everything that happens in the background on the Windows desktop should not be of concern right now, every night Win 64 bit is several months out.
If you really want to test the Win 64 Nightly builds, follow and participate in the very different evenings and son of 'channels' on MozillaZine forum is based. -

shortcuts to the internet protocol
When I try to create a desktop icon to a Web site I get the message
Unable to open this Internet shortcut. The "http" Protocol is not a registered program
You must set the internet program by default. Usually, your browser will ask you to make the default to manage the http protocol, but if not, you will need to manually set in the browser options.
If you use Internet explorer, go to control panel Internet Options-->--> click programs, and then click the button "make default".
If you use Firefox, go to the menu of Firefox--> Options--> click on the Advanced tab, and then click the button 'Make Firefox the default browser'
I do not use so I can't give you exact measurements, but in other browsers as well, you should find the option other browsers.

Why the desktop icons all move to the left of the screen on any update?
I place all the icons of the convenient positions, not on the grid. But whenever I do any upgrade of Microsoft or others, all icons move to the left side of the screen, sometimes on the grid and sometimes not, sometimes restart and sometimes not. I'm really tired of having to move all icons when this happens. I even tried locking icons on the desktop, but that does not work either.
.
Make sure that the reorganization is not selected when you right-click on the desktop. That said, you can still see this problem if you do not have to line up on the grid.
This tool will make your icons back where they were if there is no other resolution.

can not move icons on the desktop and have a blue info box to the top of the left side of the Office (box shows folder tasks, other places, details) want to get rid of the box and be able to move icons.
Go to control panel-> display-> desktop-> Desktop tab customize-> Web tab and unckech lock desktop items
If it does not backup all of your icons, go to the general tab and click on restore by default. Copy all of your icons on the desktop and it should work.
