I'm lucky enough to be able to run a high resolution desktop - 1680x1050. As a result, though, the icons on the desktop look stupidly big, taking up about an inch or more of real space. So I started looking for a way to reduce the size and came across the solution.
Make sure there is nothing open on the desktop. Click on the desktop background. Hold down the CTRL key - you should now see a box appear around the first icon on the desktop. Whilst holding down the CTRL key, move the scroll wheel on your mouse backwards and forwards to make the icons bigger or smaller.
Unfortunately, I don't know how you achieve this trick if you don't have a scroll wheel on your mouse ...
