Thanks, Loui -
I was reluctant to reinstall Windows95 because of the hassle of backing up and
restoring a lot of stuff.  I kept fiddling around until I found the answer -
which may be of interest to others:

When I uninstalled IE4 (using control panel add/remove), it failed to take one
line out of the system.ini file.  That line was:
              shell=iexplore.exe
Once that line was removed, the desktop reappeared!
-Jim Woods - still learning.
