Hi,
If you want to see your desktop Wallpaper without the Icons in the way, this works good. ( Nice for Capturing purposes too .)
-------------------------------------------


How to: Hide the desktop icons when viewed as a Web page.
Solution:

Click 'Start', select 'Settings', and select 'Control Panel'. Double-click the 'Display' icon and click the 'Effects' tab. Select the 'Hide icons when the desktop is viewed as a Web page' check box and click 'OK'. To close the 'Control Panel' window, select the 'File' menu and select 'Close'.

(*Now*, just right-click on desktop and check- uncheck "View as a web page" to hide and show your Icons) . Simple.

nufsed,

PS>

When you right-click on desktop point at "Active Desktop" to open "View as a Webpage".

Enjoy,
