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
