Hey everyone, recently all my icons on my desktop and in the start Menu have disappeared (except a few such as iTunes and MSWord). I can't figure out what happened. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to Computerhope soccermandude. ;D
Have you tried right clicking on the desktop screen...when you get arrange icons...click Show Desktop Icons ? :-?
-
Sorry I said that wrong, all the real icons have disappeared so instead they all have the same icon. Its the icon when windows doesn't recognize a program, I don't know how to describe it.
-
There is a program called 'TWEAK UI' for windows XP.
It may help you but,I am not really familiar with it.....
Haven't used it before.
Someone else will post soon. :-?

I believe your talking about the "unknown file" icon
are any of these icons a shortcut, is the program it is looking for in the proper directory.?
have you deleted any files lately?
When did this start? what anti-virus-spam have you used/runned?

Indeed.
Get TweakUI from here (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx), and go to Repair --> Rebuild icons --> Repair now to restore all icons.
Hope this helps.

Thank You Calum. :D
I was laughing about how Microsoft Lists something then...Disclaimer. ;D
Note: We take great care to ensure that PowerToys work as they should, but they are not part of Windows and are not supported by Microsoft.

No problem.
I use TweakUI myself, it's pretty useful.
And yes, the way M$ lists Powertoys is quite funny.
I think they were created by independent programmers not for M$, and then M$ bought the programs and hosted them on its site.
Something like that?

"runned" is a word depending on what part of the country you are in, and so is "gooder" wich is "more better" than "Good"

And what about this?

our friends.......we are expected to work on our grammar while responding

I spell wrong and punctuate stupid some times.I have a 9th grade education.
Wich in our language is half of a sandwich.
If I didn't have PeckerWood for my conscience I would do (badder)worse.
