To add to what booh said, what "trial icon thing" did you install. If you want the original icons back uninstall it at run this to reset your system files - http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1538-sfc-scannow-command-system-file-checker.html
It looks like your using a custom theme also so you will need to re run the theme patcher after running the scan

edit - unless the icons are a part of the theme of course

ill try the sfc in cmd prompt happened when i tried a software called iconpackger and changed some icons but found out it wasn't free so i uninstalled it and now my icons are messed up so i'm going to try SFC to reset my system files , will report back whether this fixed it or not

 

[boohbah]

its best to avoid iconpackager ,it seems to lead to issues

the best /easiest way to change icons ,folders etc is to use 7tsp,

7 Theme Source Patcher

then find a 7tsp pack that you like or one that matches the theme you already have.

What was the result of the SFC /SCANNOW. It may need to be run up to 3 times until it reports "no integrity violations".
As Booh said icon packager does nothing but cause issues. Do you have any backups/system images to revert back to before you installed it. You could first try a system restore to before you had these issues.

ealierest system restore i have is before i installed direct x on 12/28 think i installed it on the 29 or later after i installed direct x not sure but i think il'l try system restore because its still there

EDIT: ok system restore fixed thnx and got a question is there a way to change the way my mouse crusier looks also?

You should try and get into the habit of creating a System Restore point, before installing stuff.
HDD Images are better, but more time consuming.
I often forget to do it myself.

"Do as I say, not as I do."

i create a new point each time i start up.
use this ,its a lifesaver
