| This is a post that was originally posted on 12/26 and I still cannot repair
| my desktop. My husband accidentally downloaded a virus & spyware onto the
| computer. I erased the virus and the spyware with Microsoft anti spyware
| software and there is no more virus or spyware, but I cannot change the
| picture on my desktop. When I right click on the desktop and click properties
| and go to desktop, it will not let me choose a background. I can have a
| screen saver, but no background. Can someone please help me fix this? I am
| totally frustrated....THANKS
