Here's the story, my computer got some malware that turned my desktop background into a flashing ad. I removed all the malware but now my background is just flashing white and grey.

I need to know how to return my background back to normal.

Thanks!

Hi eastsidemagsthbs

Welcome to GTG!

Before we can provide you any assistance, you need to go here and install "Service Pack 1" This will patch numerous security holes in IE and Windows. Many baddies get on your machine by taking advantage of these vulnerabilities. As your machine stands now it is wide open to attack from all sorts of nasties. You need to get these updates before we proceed or we will be wasting our time.

DO NOT install Service pack 2 yet. If you install SP 2 on an infected machine it will cause serious problems. Just get Service Pack 1 installed. After you get SP1 installed, restart your computer then rescan with Hijack This and save a new log. Come back here and post the new Hijack This log.
