Hi rsivanandan:
It is looks that this is the right place...
However, I tried this before - disactivating the "use drop shadow" box
than checked the box again and.... no affect on the icons' fonts blue background on my screen.
Any other idea?

Can you try this then?
right click on the desktop, go
to properties then desktop, then customise desktop, then the web tab and
unckeck everything, that should not be there

If it doesn't work then there are tools to get it working.
One thing you can try is http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx
Download tweakUI and fix the icons.
