Or you can simply edit the NEWDESK.INF file in a text editor to get rid
of out-dated file references, icons no longer used, etc.  What happens
is that every time you save some change to the NEWDESK.INF file, it
appends that information change so you wind up with a larger and larger
file.  Pare it down!  You can still have lots of icons on the desktop,
just edit the darn INF file!  Good Luck!
