"My Current Home Page" missing from display properties web tab

[Guest]

Got some kind of virus the other day and am slowly recovering but still can't
get the backgrounds to scroll on desktop tab and also have just a blank box
under the web tab. Originally was missing desktop, appearance and themes
tabs, but got those back. Just can't do much with them. I'm guessing I
might have to re-adjust settings in registry, just not sure which.

Hi,

Run the edit on line 285 (right hand side):

If that doesn't help, your system isn't clean yet or the cleaner you used
when trying to remove the Security issue via Web, (which disables the
desktop and more) went a bit too far. In the meantime, run this combo:

Run Ad-Aware SE, Spybot, CWShredder and HijackThis:

Note: Update the first two programs, once installed, before running.
