     The INIT29 virus stores code in the Desktop file so it doesn't allow the
desktop to be rebuilt.  This could be your problem, it's a slim chance but you
never know.

     Info on the INIT29 virus can be found by anonymous ftp to sumex-aim.
stanford.edu.  Anti-virus files are in /info-mac/virus.
