Question about 'Hide all Icons on the Desktop'

I have a question about Hide
all Icons on the Desktop:
I have winXP.
I have managed to turn off my destop icons...
I removed all of them, including the recycle bin.
I can still right-click on my desktop, the icons are just turned off. I remember
just clicking a box, (it said turn off desktop icons) and they went away.
Now I am trying to do this on another computer running XP. And I cannot, for the
life of me, remember how I did it! After reading these posts, I assume I used a
program, rather than Windows...
Also, if I open the desktop folder, the icons are listed, they just do not appear
on my actual desktop.
Does anybody have any idea how I managed to do this?

I have tried everything...
but the easiest solution, I guess.
This has been driving me crazy for days.
Thank you, that worked perfectly...
