this is an annoyance some run into with Windows 7, btw
1. right click somewhere on your desktop (not on an icon) and see if autoarrange is checked (under View I think)...if it's checked, uncheck it. In your case, you may want to also uncheck align to grid if it's checked. If you had to uncheck either of them, reboot your puter once they're unchecked. If not, just go to #2
2. If you haven't already, put your icons back where you want them, then right click on the desktop again and click refresh.
In theory, this should save your icons to where you put them and not let your puter to decide to reset them to default

Ever notice that extra fries and exercise sound a lot alike?
