Icon images scrambled -- Help?

[PearlM]

After loading the software for a new keyboard, 95% of my icons became unviewable -- the image looks like snow on the TV. I have tried every scan I have, Ad-Aware, Spybot, Trend Micro virus scan, scandisk, PC Rescue, etc. I tried defrag, but received a message that I have errors on the computer and can't defrag. Any ideas, anybody!?

Follow one of these options to rebuild the ShellIconCache and see if that resolves it:

The message you received from Defrag indicates you have some problems on the hard drive. You should run a full scandisk (was that the option you chose?), but be advised there are some risks here:
