 [See comment 2 to reveal the mystery]

 I had a flash video (downloaded with UberTuber) sitting on my desktop, and
 then deleted it, so it was no longer on the desktop.  Later that day, I
 saved a text file from Pe to the desktop.  I didn't look at it at the
 time, but this morning I noticed my text document had the same icon as the
 flash video I had trashed.  I was able to use filetypes to change the
 document back to a text file, which allowed it to again be opened normally
 in Pe, and its text looked fine.  But that seemed like a strange enough
 turn-of-events that I thought I'd better report it.   Note, the trashed
 video file also had a completely different filename than the text file on
 the desktop.
