Guest Bilbo Posted July 27, 2008 Posted July 27, 2008 A WinXPSP2 PC got infected by the "AntiVirus XP 2008" malware thing and it was removed, apparently effectively. And it appears that none of the other clients on the LAN got infected by this one. That's the good news. The bad news is that when the user logs off, her personal wallpaper remains on screen even after logoff is completed and the Ctl-Alt-Del popup appears to solicit the next login. I feel sure this is controlled by a policy or registry setting but I've no idea how to return it to the default. Wallpaper is one of the more obvious things corrupted by that evil "AntiVirus XP 2008" program and all the malware it invites in. Does anyone know how to revert this back to the Windows Default? Thanks, -- BilBo

Download it here http://pcbutts1.com/downloads/tools/tools.htm The desktop reset tool is built-in to the Remove-it software. The advantage of using Remove-it is that it targets that malware and will remove what was left over by from what you used to clean it. -- Ignore posts made by the person called Leythos, he is a stalker who's been obsessed with me for years ever since I spurned his advances towards me.
