Environment

Novell ZENworks 7 Desktop Management - ZfD7 Application Launcher (NAL)
Novell ZENworks 7 Desktop Management - ZfD7
Group policies are enabled with Active desktop and custom picture wallpaper.
Issue noticed while using XPsp2 with ZEN7hp2 agent.

Situation

NAL desktop icons move to the left of the screen after several reboots of the workstation.  Icons were originally placed elswhere on the desktop.

Resolution

Fixed in ZENworks 7 with SP1  Desktop Management, available at https://download.novell.com
which fixes this issue in most environments.  In this particular case, the issue still occurs when using a specific NDS and workstation configuration.  Problem appears to be related with "Active Desktop" and Group Policies in this particular environment.
