black squares instead of icons!!!!

In the tool bar at the bottom of the screen, my icons have
turned into little black squares instead of the icons they
used to be. How do I get them back?

First - make sure that you have your Folder Options set so that you can view
System files and folders, and Hidden Files.
Then - Open Windows Explorer and go to c:\Windows - look there for the file
'ShellIconCache'.
DELETE IT
reboot, and windows will rebuild the file.

If that doesn't work, then you'll need to increase the size of the cache -
download and install the IconCache Fix from
