Suddenly the desktop icon has disappeared from the Quick Launch bar on my
computer (Win2KPro). I use it frequently, so it is quite disturbing not to
have it any more.

What can I do to get it back?
 
Create a file named "Show Desktop.scf" paste this text in the file save it,
then drag it to the Quick Launch bar.

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop

Create text file with the following lines:

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop

Save that file as "Show Desktop.scf" in the following folder:
%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\

PS. %appdata% = %systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\
