68652 2002-08-06 06:27:00 I don't know how I've come by this Icon on my desktop .

Incinerator appeared a few days ago and is unmovable . No way of deleting it and when I run Adaware I come up with several items to delete, all related to Incinerator .

Clicking onto Properties tells me it's from Iola Technologies, but as far as I'm aware I haven't downloaded anything in the last few days that was connected to them .

When I click onto the icon I find that I can "open", "explore", "create a shortcut" certainly no "delete" Can`t seem to find any mention of it in Windows Explorer .

Appreciate any help or suggestions offered

I'm running Windows 98SE

68655 2002-08-06 06:57:00 I found the site Iris - www.iolo.com The program that was downloaded was probably System mechanic. It uses the incinerator icon that you mentioned that has suddenly appeared on your desktop.
