I use Dapper 6.06 (dist-upgraded from 5.10).

What option are you referring to exactly ? I don't recall changing
such a setting ... but
maybe its an old setting from a previous version of Ubuntu (I think I
dist-upgraded twice without flushing /home).

Also, I do have a home directory seperate from the Desktop directory,
they are "/home/my_username" and "/home/my_username/Desktop"
respectively.

Thanks for the suggestion ! (But I have a bunch of other scripts for
which it is still a bit annoying like "Search Here", "Recursive Disk
Usage", etc.)

Thanks for your time !
