Display Properties > Effects > Hide icons when the desktop is viewed
as a web page (uncheck).

Alternative solution:
If a problem is less than 5 days old in Win98, then restart F8
bootup/Command prompt only Dos or restart in Msdos mode and type
scanreg/restore and try an older reg backup.

Reboot. If that doesn't fix it, come back for another hint.
