Hello, Everyone :)
Interesting question.  I have found that whenever I logout, and log back
in, I find that my icons have moved.  I don't know when this started.  I
am now running Fedora Core 2, full installation (not an upgrade), all
released (and unreleased) updates applied.  My QT is from TrollTech's
current stable version, compiled from source.  And my version of KDE is
from CVS HEAD.

As far as Chad's statement about can they be locked, I want to clarify
that this behavior, as far as I've noticed (RedHat 7 through Fedora Core
2, including all stops inbetween) this is new behavior.  I have never
had any issues before with moving icons.

Have a Great Day :)
