Every time I've seen this happen it was a corrupted desktop
file (I think this is more likely to happen when switching from an old
MFS finder to a new HFS one (because the old finder won't recognize
the hierarchical folders and will do the old desktop file folder
thing).
The cure should be to hold down command and option while the
finder is starting up and answering "OK" to the dialog box. Note: you
will lose the "get info" comment box contents of all your files.
