Internet Explorer special desktop icon disappeared

This is really frustrating me. The desktop, as you know, has a
special-function icon for Internet Explorer, which can be turned on or
off in Display Properties > Desktop > Customize Desktop. However, for
some reason, the icon has permanently been deleted and will not come
back if I check and uncheck the box.

Can anyone help me with this, I hate it when random crap like this
happens --and this is first real bug I've seen in Windows XP (and it
didn't use to have it)

Thanks --may I just ask why both that and "Disable the File Menu in
Windows Explorer" are both listed as No. 20?

Just makes me... a little concerned...
