desktop icons

I believe vista now has the ability to turn off the desktop icons, prehaps
you tripped that by mistake?

Yes, its a known issue, right click the icon, click properties > Shortcut

Photoshop related icons populate the shortcut icon window. Select the

Apply this procedure for the other Adobe applications and iTunes, just
remember to navigate to the appropriate root directories in Program Files
where these applications are stored.

You forgot to say that UAC will prevent you to changing the icon for that
file. I had to toggle UAC off. It's nearly impossible to work with Vista it
on.
