...only one fix, saves time and loadsa frustration...first add another administrator in the log in, then log in. ..you will see that all the desktop icons are now transparent. ...looks great does nt it!!...then just delete/remove the original adminstrator with the shadowed icons,it will ask you if youll want to save programs and stuff, so save anything you need to keep and take it to your new login , and install the programs you need to use. ...good luck Believe me Ive tried every thing for a fix and to no avail!!this will give you a fresh start...good luck
