i am using windows xp pro.

i used to hav icons of programs i frequently use. now in my desktop there are no icons at all, not even my computer.

whole desktop is empty.

how can i make those icons reapper? i tried to send shor cut to desktop but nathin can be seen.
 
go to taskmanager and kill explorer.exe and restart it by typing in explorer.exe in new task. Then scan your system for spyware and post a hijack this log
 
do spyware scans and post a log. Also, disable everything in msconfig. start, run, type msconfig, go to startup, disable all, reboot
 
Right click on yourself and see if "Show Desktop Icons" is checked. If not, click it. That happens a lot to people... Also, yeah, check for spyware... that could also be the cause.
 
did you get an error when loggin on about using default profile cause yours was locked?
