No repsonse from desktop icons and control panel

Look at your proseses and see if anything is using more than 50% i had
one using 99%, i used a program called hijack this to remove it and
all was fine.

Do a control alt delete and end explorer.exe then try to load your
apps, you wont have a desktop anymore but you know where you exe's are
for your programs, could be a good idea to place some shortcuts in a
directory on your c:\ drive to make it easier to fine them.

at the shortcut property the word 'Recycled' had been added to the target). I went into Control Panel but most of the programs would not respond - eg User Accounts. Some like Printers did work. I had to resort to a System Restore to get back to where I had
been a couple of days earlier. Things then seemed OK, but today I switched on my PC and the problem had reoccurred. Again I did a System Restore, but I am worried that the fix will be temporary - and I have no idea what is causing the problem. Any ideas g
