Hello,
I cannot change the wallpaper on my winxp machine. I can change the screen saver, themes, etc., but the different options on the wallpaper drop-down don't respond. The only thing I can change is the background color. If I click on a picture on the web and try to set that as wallpaper it doesn't work, but then shows up very briefly when I shut down and again when I start up. I have run Spybot, Ad-Aware, Spy Sweeper, and Norton Antivirus, all of which show the computer is clean. I even reinstalled xp with no help. Seems like there must be something that got downloaded into the computer which is doing this, but I can't find it. What to do? Below is the log from hijackthis. Thanks for any help.
