This is normally due to malware -- first thing I would do is Malwarebytes or Vipre Rescue on those workstations. I'm guessing you'll find something.

These are WinXP machine, local profiles. The subdirectories are all there and visible (Games, Accessories, UltraVNC, and all the others), but the shortlink links to the actual programs are ALL gone. Their desktop icons have not been effected by this. I know I can probably blow away their profile and re-create to get icons back but... any idea what might have happened and how to get them back? Short of replacing their profile?
