Gary,
I had icon creep also, except that my icons moved slightly downward. As
I recall, the solution has something to do with the eCenter. I have
mine at the bottom of my desktop; do you have yours at the top?

I found a discussion (which I started) about the phenomenon on the eCS
News Server, news.ecomstation.nl, newsgroup eComStation.support.install,
using the search term "Sliding Desktop Icons".

There is a setting in eCenter properties called "Reduce Desktop Area",
which on both my eCS 1.1 and my eCS 1.2 system is NOT checked. See if
that works for you.
Colin
