Active Desktop not working

Apr 5, 2004 4:51AM PDT

I have a Windows 2000 Server OS issue.

My active desktop seems to have stopped working.

I cannot get any of the shortcuts on the desktop to work. When I click on a shortcut the screen blinks and then nothing happens. Also, clicking on search or any of the other "START" selections (Programs; Documents; Settings; etc) gets the same response - nothing. Can someone tell me what to do to fix this???
