| | Drive Icons in My computer I have just noticed that, in "My computer", icons for drives that are shared have a liitle symbol showing two heads next to the actual drive icon. Has this always been so (meaning I have very unobservant) or is it the result of an update? -- Alto Central Coast NSW Australia |

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Drive Icons in My computer Hello Alto, Yes, this is normal for any file, folder, or drive that you set to be shared. It's just a icon overlay to indicate to you that it is shared. Hope this helps, Shawn  Quote: Originally Posted by Alto  I have just noticed that, in "My computer", icons for drives that are shared have a liitle symbol showing two heads next to the actual drive icon.
