How to Remove Annoying Common Tasks from Desktop in Windows XP

Its a known bug in Windows XP and it happens when the desktop.htt file entry in registry get corrupted. Windows XP considers Desktop as a normal folder and shows common tasks on Desktop just like other folders.

But don't worry here I'm posting a solution which can fix this problem:

1st METHOD:
1. Type regedit in RUN dialog box and press Enter. Now go to:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{00021400-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} \shellex\ExtShellFolderViews\{5984FFE0-28D4-11CF-AE66-08002B2E1262}
2. In right-side pane, set value of "PersistMoniker" to:
file://%userappdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop.htt
3. Thats it. Log off and log on again. It'll fix the problem.
2nd METHOD:
1. Download following ZIP file, extract it and run the extracted .REG file:
Download ZIP File
2. Log off and log on again. It'll fix the problem
