Whilst messing about with my new mouse i've accidentally increased the size of the icons on the left of the desktop, can someone advise me on how to return them back to there original size, thanks.

try right clicking on the desktop, then on view and the top of the list should be large/medium/small icons - select as appropriate

I tried it just out of curiosity and after a couple of times of decreasing and increasing the size I ended up with the icons spread all over the screen and additional icons that I didn't want.

I've just discovered that you can "drag" and move the icons around, i'm learning every day !

click and hold your mouse button to the left or right of a bunch of icons, then "draw" a box (a dotted box appears) round the ones you want to do "stuff" with.
