Hi there! I really hope you can help me. Yesterday, Spy Sheriff installed itself unbeknownst to me. I was able to remove it using Spy Sweeper, but it still left me with a blue screen as my desktop wallpaper instead of my usual, and I cannot change it. I tried Adaware, & Microsoft Anti Spyware, and still nothing.

Here is my HJT log:

Hope you can help, thanks ever so much.

Hi floorheatguru and welcome to GeeksToGo! My name is Excal and I will be helping you.

I can see that you have some malware issues. This maybe a few step process in removing it. I encourage you to stick with it and follow my directions as closely as possible so as to avoid complicating the problem further.

Go to Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs and remove the following:

SpySheriff

Exit Add or Remove Programs.

Delete the following, in bold, if found:

C:\Program Files\SpySheriff <-whole folder
C:\Windows\Desktop.html
C:\winstall.exe

Make sure you are disconnected from the Internet and that all programs and windows are closed. Run HiJackThis. Place a check next to the following items, if found, and click FIX CHECKED:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant = about:blank
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search,SearchAssistant =
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

Close HiJackThis.

Copy everything inside the quote 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 fixspy.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 fixspy.reg on your desktop. When asked if you want to merge with the registry click YES. After the merged successfully prompt, please reboot your computer.

You should be able to change your desktop back to normal now.

Please post a new HiJackThis log.

Excal:

I did as requested, by I still cannot get my desktop back. Now, the only options tabs I have in display properties are screensaver and settings.
