When I open the control panel and then to the "change desktop" icon, all I
can do is display a color--the list of backgrounds is there, but it won't let
me access it--same for the browser button; its there, yet its faded and I
can't click it. This problem was just encountered today, no past incidences
concerning this. Did a file get removed? It would be awesome if someone could
help

Thanks
