Hi,
I have got the same problem. It started in the start menu and now has progressed
to my destktop. I could not delete the shelliconcache either. Did you get any response
and if so could you let me know how to fix it please.
Thank you

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

Thank your Glenn for simplifying what seem (from previous read resolutions?) to be
a complex problem.

Thank you it worked. I went online and tried to find a fix for corrupted icons. Read
about intense technical fixes. Just happened on ur site and post and it worked like
magic. If not for ur post I would still be looking. Thanks a million.
