    hey, I too had the same problem with my xp. but i thought that it comes on when the computer gets old. and when i reinstalled xp, the icons retained themselves.

    Try changing the theme

    Try this:

    Start >> Control Panel >> System >> Advanced >> Performance >> Settings >>Visual >> Effects >> "Use drop shadows for icon labels on the Desktop"
