Just a WAG - have you installed TweakUI recently? Are you sure the "Focus"
hasn't moved to My Documents?

Following warnings/notes reproduced with acknowledgement to the late
Koldbear

1) Do *not* change the first icon from "My Documents" on the Desktop tab
2) Do *not* uncheck: Search Results on the Desktop tab
3) Do *not* hide the Tweak UI icon on the Control Panel tab
4) Do *not* uncheck: Show Control Panel on Start Menu on the IE tab
5) Do *not* uncheck: Shell enhancements on the IE tab
6) To move "My Documents" folder, right-click on the Folder, and click
Properties.

WinMe boots ok and Desktop loads ok but
there is no "Focus" on My Computer or on
any other Icon on the Desktop.
To get the "Focus" on My Computer icon I have to click anywhere on the
desktop Computer icon. Is it something to
do with the System Tray items?
