hey network icon on desktop

why can't I move you around?

is this some weird quirk like you can't be connected to a network to be able to move it?

Are we talking Windows or OSX here? I can move the network icon around on both XP and Vista.

Quick steps to fixing:
1) Find a Windows machine
2) move around the My Network Icon until you get bored of playing with it
3) Go back to using your own computer?

On a serious note does Mac have the ability to lock an item via any properties dialogues?

Take a screenshot, paste it into Photoshop, select the icon area and move it for as long as you like.

you guys think you're so funny.

(I want to move it so it doesn't clash with my background image!)

That's what you get for being a Mac user.*nursery-school supervisor look*

Can't you just delete it?

How about you find the icon wherever it's stored on OSX and craft yourself a new one?
