Help! I am trying to fix my parents computer. Their wallpaper is STUCK (unchangeable) on a blue screen with a black box with red letters that says "Warning! Your computer is infected with spyware, windows recommends...." .
At first I thought it might have been a legitimate windows warning, but I've run Spybot S&D, SpywareBlaster, Adaware and SpyGuard (passive protection) on the computer and removed all the spyware. The screen is still unchangeable?
I can change everything else in the settings and display (that I've checked anyways), just not the wallpaper?
Does anyone have any ideas, or know how to fix this?
Thanks!
