Hi Will,

Do you have the Desktop Toolbar (in the Taskbar) enabled? In some
systems, enabling the Desktop toolband causes Windows Explorer to show
multiple Desktop icons in the folder tree.


Yes. But I will now close it and see what happens. Thankyou. However, I
did have it activated without problem before I upgraded recently from
SP1 to SP2. Is this a purely SP2 issue?
