This was a fix that worked for a number of people on another forum.

On another forum there was a similiar fix but in that case the desktop folder existed but permissions were inadequate to add an icon. Even having administrator rights was not a garentee they had permissions. This makes some sense since the error message specificly refers to "access denied" which is what you get when you try to get into a folder your not supposed to.
Evrything I came accross was XP so maybe Vista is something totally different.

Just trying to make an educated guess (without the education )
