Hello,

You may also wish to try Super Ad Blocker with SUPERAntiSpyware:

Super Ad Blocker | SUPERAntiSpyware offers several unique features such as
using a system level driver to delete the files, so pests do not come back
once detected and cleaned.

Super Ad Blocker offers a fully functional 15-day trail. You can scan and
clean your computer and then remove Super Ad Blocker if you do not wish to
keep it. We do appreciate when users support our development efforts by
purchasing the product :)

If that does not find and/or remove the spware/adware on your machine, you
can submit a diagnositc and I will diagnose your machine for free and post
the results back to the group and update our rules with anything found:

It helps to be specific about what the fully qualified name and path is to the unidentified
folder.
 
Depends....are they stored under All Users? Either way, check here:

Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders

Change:

CommonDesktop
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Desktop

To:

CommonDesktop
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop

All the Best,
