Unable to Rename Desktop Icons

I'm a standard user and I'm am unable to rename desktop icons, if I click
rename, it just never gives me an edit box. If I go into
users\username\desktop, I can rename the icons there, just not from the
desktop.

Also, if I go into a different user, that user can rename the icons.

I did notice that I'm also unable to rename my icons on my XP box as well.

Is there maybe one icon that's screwing this up or did I lock my desktop
somehow?

Thanks!
