Please Help

I posted this on /g/:
Does someone know what's happening?

Hello /g/ it's my first time on here.
I'm having a bit of a problem right now.
Well.
I'll just state the details.

My taskbar isn't visible.
I can't see any of my desktop icons on the screen.

The only thing I can see is my wallpaper.
If I restart my laptop it would be back to normal, but this usually happens after the taskbar goes white and blocky ( kind of like the old windows thing.)

It's been bugging me for a while.
Also I'm only able to access the web right now because Avast is open and I clicked Support then Check FAQ.

The browser closes sometimes.
Please help.
Feel free to ask questions.

You will have to use Linux apps, naturally, like Banshee for your music collection
Gross. Use cmus.
and Evince for PDFs (good!)
Gross. Use Okular.
or LibreOffice for an office suite (bad!)
LO is as good as it gets. If you spend a lot of time in a word processor (faggot), load a Windows VM with the latest Office.
