I was installing a software program and after I rebooted my pc, I noticed that my dekstop icons, some where missing. I took a screenshot. Anybody know how I can fix this?

go grab the XP power toys http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx

and there an icon rebuilder program that microsoft distributes. Its a problem with the size of the icon cache more then likely.

TweakUI is the program that has the icon rebuilder btw.
