I use DesktopX's (version 2) IconX feature. After using Microsoft Outlook,
taskbar Icons and some systray ones turn into a black rectangle. In addition
the cursor also turns into this black rectangle. Only thing that remedy this
odd behaviour is a clean boot. I have tried reparing icon cache and
reloading icon packs to no avail (IconPackager version 2.12b.076). I have
also uninstalled all applications and performed a clean reinstall with the
same result.
I am running Object Desktop with only the latest release applications (no
beta) on winXP SP1 with all updates.
Outlook is part of OfficeXP 2002 suite.
Any feedback would be much appreciated.
Best regards

I don't think it's DesktopX doing this. Something is leaking handles or GDI
resources.
