I have this problem and have been finding similar fixes around the net. My
problem is on a network, however, with multiple users having this problem.
If the user logs on locally, no problem, single icons, no duplication. I
have tried the relevant registry changes, but with a lot of shared computers
on the network, it is impractical to apply this particular fix. Have you any
idea why we are getting this problem? Could it be to do with group policy?
