The desktop is going wild. Everytime I click all the shortcut icons duplicate. And some of the icons are not what program they say they are. I can't find the original to open up the program and I can't throw them away because the recycle bin is also a shortcut without throw away privileges.

you could try using microsofts "tweakUI" and use the rebuild icons function - just a thought - anyway its available at www.hotfiles.com. hope it helps

This sounds like a virus. If possible go to http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ or
http://security1.norton.com/ssc/home.asp?j=1&langid=us&venid=sym&plfid=20&pkj=BJJVPWFYJOKMFIDPMSV
Both will check your computer for viruses and its free.
