Corrupted Recycle Bin?

At times my recycle bin shows empty when full.
This can be corrected by changing the icon back to the default icon
in Customize Desktop. At present I am using the default xp icon.
If the recycle bin is corrupted how might I fix it?
I have also used the registry fix to replace the registry key for
the default, empty, and full recycle bin.
When I used WinMe I was able to remove the recycle bin
by going 'DOS' and Me would recreate it on startup.

Also, What are these other folders?
Recycler
Recycled

Thanks,
James
