Copy and paste the following lines into a Notepad file.
[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop
Save the file to your Desktop as Show Desktop.scf. Next left click on the file you just created and drag it down to the Quick Launch bar and release.

If i remember rightly you need to right click on the task bar at the bottom and enable the "Quick Launch" icons, of which "Show Desktop" is one of them.
