My laptop was fine on friday but yesterday i turned it on and my background came up but no icons or toolbar

 

i'm on the internet now because

i pressed ctrl+alt+del and the task manager came up

New task then browsed for internet explorer

 

but thats all i could do

 

how come i dont have a desktop?

could it be a virus or have i done something to hide it?

 

any advice welcome

With the XP CD in the CD-drive, go to task manager => file => new task and run sfc /scannow. This could repair the files missing for the desktop....you could have picked up a virus?
