My computer is doing similar things.  I have Win ME.  
My desktop icons are fine ... but start menu and explorer icons are falling apart 
or gone altogether.
I fixed mine by going to the desktop, right click and select properties, select the 
EFFECTS tab, and UNCHECK the "Show Icons Using All Posible Colors".  I don't know 
why my icons started getting corrupted after 2 years of running fine and I don't 
know why this fixed it but at this point, I don't really care.  For whatever reason, 
this fixed all my icons immediately.  No restart was required.  I was just grasping 
at straws to try and avoid a RESTORE.  :)
Good Luck.  Glenn
