The only thing I knew to do was a System Restore. I did that to a point
just before I removed Spybot Search & Destroy. That fixed my .lnk file
problem, so I know for sure that SS-D was the problem, but now I have
Spybot Search & Destroy back in my Program files. Everytime I try to delete
it, I get the message: SDHelper.dll access is denied, Cannot delete. Looks
like it's something I'll have to live with.

Wes, in addition to the first message, behind it was: File: Microsoft
Office.Ink disabled. I reinstalled MSO and ask it to repair shortcuts,
but that didn't help.
This didn't happen until I removed Spybot-Search & Destroy from my
computer. It did this once before for the same reason, and someone gave me
a file that would fix the problem, but that was a couple of years ago.
It's really annoying for the message to pop up every time I boot up.
thanks for any help

Windows Desktop Search.lnk.disabled is some sort of malware. You have
some crap that you do not want.
UPDATE your antivirus software and run a full system scan.
UPDATE whatever anti-spyware applications that you have and run a full
system scan with each one.
You might want to start in Safe Mode to run your antivirus and
anti-spyware software.
Running a full system antivirus scan or anti-spyware scan in Safe Mode
can
be a good idea. Some viruses and other malware like to conceal
themselves
in areas Windows protects while using them. Safe mode will prevent
those
applications access and therefore unprotect the viruses or other malware
allowing for easier removal.
