How will I be able to restore my desktop's display properties to chose colorful background?

X

xwin

My XP (Home) Dell desktop was infected with various viruses, worms,
malwares, CWS spywares, etc. I was able to clean it up from all sorts of
Internet parasites. When it was infected the virus changed the desktop
background to dynamic animated porn pictures. Now I can't even change the
desktop background from plain white because in the 'desktop propeties' says
URL(address): file://C:\WINDOWS\Web\desktop.html.
When I went to 'C:\Windows\Web' folder there's no HTML file there, however,
I can dump the HTML page as 'view source' instead of 'display properties.

Get ahold of a phone book and look up a repair/service person. Spend the
money for a hours's worth of consulting advice. Chance are if you pay
for it, you'll follow it in the future to keep your system running
clean.
