Found the solution dude!

ok so here it goes:

1. in a new text file type this in:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.scf]
@="SHCmdFile"
"ZAMailSafeExt"="zm5"

2. save the file as "fix.reg" without the quotes

3.where ever you saved it double click it
and say yes to allow the registry to be updated.

4.Now try that desktop.scf shorcut
if you don't have it here it goes again
save all of the following in a text file
name "showdesktop.scf" without the quotes

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop

5.double click showdesktop.scf 
TADA! reply if this helps please.
no seriously guys the least you could
do I mean come on!
