I too have been searching for a solution to the missing Icons, and came across the following utility that fixes it for Win9x machines - but not XP :-( http://www.xwen.org/products.html The situation went out of control for me this morning with ALL icons disappearing. I went through the task list deleting things I didn't think were needed, and by the time I'd finished, the Icons had returned (but I can't say exactly what it was that I killed that caused them to come back). More experimentation needed.
