To restore ability to change your desktop settings and select a different wallpaper and screen saver do the following:
Start, run
type Gpedit.msc
Navigate to User configuration, Administrative Templates, Control Panel, Display
Right click on Remove Display in Control Panel
Click on Properties and select Disabled
Do the same steps to change the following attributes to disabled:
Hide Desktop Tab
Prevent changing wallpaper
Hide Apperance and Themes tab
Hide Settings tab
Hide Screen Saver tab
You should now be able to use your computer normally and change the wallpaper to something other than the blue screen.HELP VIRUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
Firstly, antivirus programs will NOT remove these as they are malicious codecs, although they may find reference to them and remove it but upon rebooting it's back again.
Therefore you need to use a 'layered' approach to removing this parasite.
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware:
http://www.download.com/Malwarebytes-Ant
Download, install, update and select Full Scan.
Remove all infections that it finds after scan.
Spybot S%26amp;D:
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/downl
Download, install, update and Immunize, then click 'Check for problems' then when complete select all and then 'Fix Checked'
Spyware Doctor Free Basic Edition - Realtime monitoring:
http://pack.google.com/intl/en/pack_inst
Its free with Google pack, untick all boxes except Spyware Doctor. Download install, update and run.
SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition:
http://www.download.com/SUPERAntiSpyware
Download, install, check for updates, then select Scan your Computer, select your drive and select Perform Complete Scan
VundoFix:
http://www.symantec.com/content/en/us/gl
Disconnect your computer from the internet
Run vundo
Restart your computer
Run the tool again to ensure no traces are left.
If there are the reboot into Safe Mode and run FixVundo again.
If your desktop has changed or icons are missing also use:
Wallpaper Hijacker Removal Tool:
http://www.majorgeeks.com/Wallpaper_Hija
Note: You should hit all ';Repair'; buttons even though it may not say ';Found!'; This will fix a wallpaper hijack everytime if all repair buttons are pressed.
Finally download trial of Windows Live OneCare and Scan:
http://onecare.live.com
If the problem persists, turn OFF System Restore and scan with the above programs in Safe Mode, Right click My computer %26gt; select Properties %26gt; System Restore Tab %26gt; Tick Turn Off System restore on all drives.
After scans are complete and machine is clean remember to turn system restore back ON and create a new restore point.
Start --%26gt;%26gt; Run --%26gt; type ';msconfig'; and enter.
Go to Start Up tab, and locate the process that runs with system. To do this, check out all the files that runs by windows startup.
Also, switch to ';services'; tab, and check ';hide all Microsoft services'; tab. Now in reamining list, check out for strange services.
Good luck!
You must be infected with some kind of Trojan or a Rogue AntiSpyware software which changed Your desktop. These things can be really annoying
