Download, install and run superantispyware and it might remove the

malware. Then try some of the following:

 

http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

51. ScreenSaver Disable/Enable or Tab Missing

128. (r-h side) Restore Desktop and Screensaver Tabs

227. (r-h side) Restore/Enable Screensaver Tab Settings/Display

I delayed re-installing an anti-virus/trojan barrier program. A bug got

on my computer and removed the desktop and screen saver tabs on desktop

properties, then replaced my background with one that had a warning

message in the middle.

 

Taking Elmo's advise I scanned with SUPERAntiSpyware and made changes

to my registry using answers 51, 128 and 227 on 'Troubleshooting

Windows XP, Tweaks and Fixes for Windows XP'

(http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm)

 

Problem solved,

 

You're a genius Elmo,

 

Keep up the good work

 

Yours,

 

Ty
