I believe I have been infected with a Klone virus. The symtoms are that I lost my background and RC and Properties does not allow it to changed. I do, briefly, see my actual background when I am shutting down. The additional symptom is that I continualy get a nag bubble from the system tray saying that my PC has an infection. I have run current versions of AdAware and AVG and that removed things. A second scan by AVG only produced a virus named Klone which was not able to be healed so I took the option to delete it. Now both AdAware and AVG run clean but I still have the symptoms. I ha downloaded and run CleanUp and I have downloaded and Run a scan with HiJackThis. The scan is below. Thanks for all the help. You geeks really save many of us out here!!
