I was on FB this morning and I was downloading a picture from a Like Page. (won't do that again!) Suddenly, my desktop picture was gone and it has been replaced with a black background and a lot of arrows, hearts, and other symbols and the words Facebook twice. The whole image is distorted and stretched out. I immediately ran a full Norton Anti-Virus Scan and a CCleaner.com scan. I ran Norton's NPE.exe file also. Nothing showed up. I haven't attempted to change the desktop background image as I want to know if something has infected my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
