Desktop icons

by jaysonrex . Updated 18 years, 3 months ago

My computer (Intel Qadro Chip, 4 Gh RAM, etc.) has Windows XP Home Edition installed and Internet Explorer 7.
THE PROBLEM: Since the upgrade to IE7, the icons on the desktop are “unstable” and many of them – on reboot – lose their original design (NYTimes, WashingtonPost, Google Mail, Amazon, etc., etc.) and adopt the HTML design (an ‘e’ on a page with the corner doubled down). Other icons, like Office 2003 programs, My Computer, Yahoo!, MSN Hotmail, Nero, keep their distinctive design.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem that NOT EVEN Microsoft is unable to?
