Vista Pics not Opening on Desktop

What a pain in the Butt…Vista would not open my photo’s when setting on my Desktop.
Well I could put the pics into a folder and they would open just fine (as long as they were not on the Desktop). I done a little research and found a link that answered my question.
Thanks to everyone over at Vista Forums for inputting the info that solved the problem. Below is what the submitted for the fix, please be kind and visit them over at www.vistax64.com.
