Well yes, I did a rm-rf /home/afrey/My_Floppy and received the message 
that this was a directory, then used the command to remove the directory 
and received that message

unable to lstat /home/afry/My_Floppy

Anyway, the permissions are normal right now. I don't know why. However, 
I am wondering if that user was still logged in the other day when I was 
attempting to install icewm.

Thanks, for the help. I'm going to go into the school this morning and 
physically log in to see if icewm is working in the lab now. I'll post 
if I have further issues.
