Hide icons from desktop

On this thread I was recommended Wallmaster and Iconoid in order to hide the icons from my desktop. My problem is that Wallmaster will also disable right-click menu on the desktop, and (on my PC) Iconoid is not tyrannical enough - the icons will display for a second hundred of times a day.
I can make the icons disappear, by tweaking Windows, but this too will prevent right-click menu on desktop.
Do you know of a good free program to hide the icons from the desktop - which will not prevent right-click menu?
I use Windows 2000 Pro.

Hide your desktop Icons however you wish, and then access them all from the tray.

IconDesk
Hides icons, makes icon text transparent, etc. but leaves the right-click menu.

IconDesk too will display the icons for a second every now and then, mostly now...
It seems the problem not is Iconoid or any other program, but my very own Explorer. :-[
Maybe the solution really has to be to say goodbye to right-click menu on the desktop. :mad:

Skrommel wrote a small program that will hide the icons from the desktop as long as the desktop is not selected.
