I just got the problem a while ago, i dont know what caused it.. maybe its that link 
i accidentaly clicked on yahoo messenger.. its a link to a .jpg, then the browser 
says that i couldnt connect so i just ignored it, then sooner or later, i got my 
icons very small, and i tried to restart windows, the icon restored to its normal 
size but lost its icon image, i tried some stuffs and this is how i solved it.. 

right click on desktop > properties > appearance tab > effects > "Use Large Icons", 
then i got my icon images back again but on large mode, do the same thing again but 
uncheck the "Use Large Icons".. then OK.. 

Hope it solved your problem.. if not, there's always a way...
