A tip that I picked up somewhere if you feel comfortable with editing the
registry:
======================
Lost Trash Can?

Open the Registry Editor--select Start, Run, type

Regedit

and click OK--and navigate your way to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
\CurrentVersion\explorer\Desktop\NameSpace. In the left pane,
right-click the NameSpace key and select New, Key. Type exactly

{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

and press Enter. (Tip: To save yourself some typing, copy the above
line to your Clipboard, then press Ctrl-V after selecting New, Key,
above.) In the right pane, right-click (Default) and select Modify. In
the resulting Edit String dialog box, on the Value data line, type

Recycle Bin

and click OK. Close the Registry Editor, click the desktop once, press
F5 (for refresh), and there's your Recycle Bin icon!
