Hi, I just registered because I wanted to post that I had the same problem and one of the suggestions here helped. The problem is that backgrounds on icon labels can be ugly, especially on some desktop backgrounds. No offense, but most of the answers seem like complete BS to me, and have nothing to do with the original question. Maybe I'm wrong about that. Anyway...

1. Right click on My computer
2. Click properties
3. Go to advanced tab.
4. Under Perfomance click Settings
Under Visual Effect
Use Adjust for Best Appearance and Apply.
Probably this works if not check or uncheck some shadow boxes and then apply...
This works for me, specifically the "Use drop shadows for icon labels on the desktop." Checking that fixed it. Thanks!

Do you want it to look like mine ?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure he had the same question as me. BTW, I found this post by searching on Google.
Thanks again.
