Try to uninstall and reinstall the display drivers. For the desktop icons, right click desktop->Arrange icons by->show desktop icons.

Adobe conned you into using it as your default browser. You want to change back to IE# as your default web browser right?

Go to the installation directory. It is probably C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer.
Look for a file there called iexplore.exe.
Right click on that file.Then use the "Create ShortCut" menu pick! That creates the shortcut. Last step: just drag the shortcut to your desktop. Done!

This seems to be an old post, anyway go into system preferences From the apple logo (top left) and check your DOCK settings.

Try this. Click on the desktop Then from the "Finder" menu choose "Preferences". In the "General" tab, make sure all the boxes are ticked - especially the one for "hard disks".

this looks like a computer virus to me, i'll tell you what to do. first of all, internet explorer is not safe, use firefox instead which you can download for free here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/
try scanning your computer with an up to date antivirus, if you don't have one, try "AVG FREE" which you can also download for free at: www.download.com.
