Hi. I don't know if you can help me. I got some [bleep] spywares on my pc such as SpySherriff (which was crazy, it poped up on my pc and then changed my desktop background). I removed it with some anti-spyware software such as Ad-aware, Spybot, Spy Doctor, Spy sweeper, etc... Now i'm trying my luck with HijackThis...
I'll show you my log.
Tell me what I can do.
Thanks.

I'm not seeing anything in your log. What is wrong with your desktop? Background changed? Missing tabs on desktop properties?

I can't change my desktop background. It's like, the box where you should choose your wallpapers is grayed out. And there's nothing in the web tab, I checked. There's no active desktop.
Spysheriff hijacked my desktop with a warning saying my pc was infected with malware, blah blah blah...
I got rid of spysheriff but i'm left with just a background with a simple color.
I just can't change my desktop background.
Please, I would like to know how to fix this.

Go to Start > Run - paste this in the box:

regedit /e c:\deskpol.txt HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies

Click OK.

Navigate to c:\deskpol.txt

Open it, copy the text inside and paste it here.

Copy everything inside the code box below (starting with REGEDIT4). Paste it into Notepad. Go up to "File > Save As", then click the drop-down box to change the "Save As Type" to "All Files". Save it as fixsheriff.reg on your desktop. *Make sure there is NO blank line above REGEDIT4

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"ForceActiveDesktopOn"=-

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"Wallpaper"=-

Double-click fixsheriff.reg on your desktop. When asked if you want to merge with the registry click YES. After the merged successfully prompt, reboot your computer and you should be able to change it back to normal.

YAY! It worked! Heh.

Thank you!

But just one thing... can I get rid of the fixsheriff.reg file now? Or do I have to keep it?

Anyway, thanks a lot.
