I had some crazy trojan / spyware get on my computer today which basically hijacked my desktop putting crazy porn ads all over. Then put fake windows pop up offering a 'spyware fixes' well basically I got some trial spyware shizzle and blitzed it....got rid of all the shite but I still can't change my desktop background to how it was....ie willy pic instead of the plain blue it used when it was jacked.

Scanned for spyware again but theres nowt on the computer now....
