Change IExplorer desktop icon

[Enrique Portugal]

Browsing in Internet, something changed the icon of the
explorer that it is in the desktop by another image. I
not find the way to restore as it was before "e". I have
already proven erasing the icon and returning it to put
from the Control Panel in the options of the desktop and
nothing. Apparently this is solved in the registry, but
I do not have idea that values will be necessary to
change. They can help me?
Please write me a mail if they find the solution
Thanx!!!

Your File ShellIconCache (may be hidden, no extension) may be corrupt.

Rename is OldShellIconCache and reboot. It will be recreated.
If all is well delete the oldshellIconCache.

If you have many icons on your desktop you may need to increase the cache.
