Sometimes it happens, the show desktop icon vanishes. To restore it all you have to do is to create a text file with the following contents.
[Shell]

IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop
Save this file on your desktop as "Show Desktop.scf", include the space. Now the desktop shortcut should appear on your desktop. Drag this to the quick launch bar. If you lost the quick launch bar right click on the start toolbar, click on toolbars and select quick launch.
