This ones got me beat.
I've been trying to sort out my friends PC.
The problem being that the transparent backgrounds and drop shadows have disappeared from the desktop icons. It annoying when you have pictorial wallpaper.
I have tried various solutions posted elsewhere on the web, i.e Checked the drop shadow tab, unchecked the lock web items tab on desktop, and tried using tune up 2007 to reset the desktop.

Any other ideas much appreciated.
That gum you like is coming back in style.
