CK mentioned that there's a bug after installing one of the MS patches, and
what you're describing is probably that. YOu may want to make sure you're
up-to-date with all the patches at the Windows Update site.
If, howeverm there is something installed on your desktop, you would see it
immediately, as it would be there as a non-shortcut and would start an app. Now
that I think about it, its probably not it cause you would see the installation
files on your desktop, thereby cluttering your system.
But, you may have programs that when you use them the settings or options are
telling it to use the desktop as the location for temporary files.
Check what CK said first, cause that could very well be the problem.

Thanks, Troth.
<<chances are you have something "installed" on your desktop, which
shouldn't be.>>
Any idea how to find this out? I looked in my Desktop folder, and there were
no applications that I could see.
