Which icons are you talking about? The ones in the Dock? Make sure the Dock is not hidden : Click on the Apple Menu->Dock->Turn Hiding Off

You mean Mac OS X doesn't even start? Do you see the gray screen with the Apple logo?

Try to Boot on the Mac OS X CD (insert the CD, and then press C when the computer starts), and repair the disk and permissions with disk utility. Disk utility can be launched through one of the menus of the Mac OS X installer, and see if this helps.

Ticking sound coming from a .pkg package? Don't let the .bom go off! Inspect it first with Pacifist. Macworld - five mice!
