If it'd not a shortcut, you can still delete it the way I stated, but that
deletes the application, and makes it harder to get back if you change your
mind. Besides the best way to remove an application is from Add/Remove
Programs; just deleting it usually leaves left=over opieces of it.


If you still say I should just get rid
of the icon I will


No, I don't say you *should* get rid of it. I'm not familiar with NetDiag
220520 and have no opinions about it one way or another. What is it? How did
it get there?

but I really think it needs a diagnostic test. I
am having problems that I'm sure you don't want to here.
Thanks again

PS. You're only stupid if you don't ask questions. Right?

Thank you for the advice you gave me. Please answer another
question. Should I call "Dell Support" or " MS TechNet" to guide me
through this so I can get rid of that icon on my desktop. I don't
feel competent myself. I change that I know I'm not.


Assuming that you are talking about a shortcut icon on your desktop
(if it has a curved arrow in its lower left corner, it's a
shortcut), you don't need to call anyone to get rid of it. I'm sure
you're competent to do it. It's extremely easy: just single-click on
it, and press the delete key. --
