Windows Explorer for 'My Computer'. How can I correct this?

Right click on an empty area of desktop, and click 'Properties'. The
Display Properties window will now appear, click on the 'Desktop' tab, click
on the 'My Computer' icon and then on 'Change Icon...' a new window will
appear where you can select the original, it being located in
C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe if you have to browse for the file, a few icons will
pop up in the display and click on the one you want and 'OK' outta there.
