how do you get rid of unwanted backgrounds from the
desktop option? it wont let you delete anything.
 
Jammie,

You won't be able to delete files from "Background" tab. You need to move the image files away from these folders:

C:\WINDOWS

C:\WINDOWS\WEB\WALLPAPER

C:\Documents and Settings\<USER NAME>\My Documents\My Pictures

C:\Documents and Settings\<USER NAME>\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer

C:\Program Files\Plus!\Themes

Create a directory somewhere else and place your image files there.
