Try DiskExpress. It has a compact desktop option that actually rebuilds
the desktop.  Once I had a desktop file problem that I could't rebuilt
it from finder.  Moments before I decided to reinitialize the hard
disk, I gave DiskExpress a shot, and it worked like a miracle (for me
at least).  I gave this advice to a friend of mine when he also had a desktop
file problem and and it worked.

Besides being a desktop file "repairman", DiskExpress is an excellent
hard disk defragmentation program, which is this program's main
function.
