After you do the following, restart and pick a new desktop/background and it should work fine.\n\nGo into internet explorer and change your hompage from about blank to msnbc.com or something.\n\nGet the latest versions of “spybot search and destroy” and “ad-aware” from downloads.com. (If you were my customer, I’d have you download them more quickly from one of my servers). Then install them. Then update to the latest versions of them. Then run the “immunize” function from within “spybot”. Then empty your trash can. Install and run “crap cleaner” from http://www.ccleaner.com . Then run a full scan with the spybot and ad-aware programs. Update your virus-scanner to the latest version. If you do not have a virus scanner, get a free non-commercial version from http://free.grisoft.com – it does a decent job and doesn’t cost anything. Make sure and run a full scan with your virus-scanner too. You should also try the free online scan at http://www.ewido.com - it's awesome.  When anything is found, fix/remove it and restart your computer. Following the above should greatly improve your internet speed, computer response time and data security.\n\nFor more information, please see the “Computer Repair/Technical Support” link on http://www.jsh.biz/ . Have a pen and paper ready because he’ll give you all of the instructions that you need in less than 10 minutes to try and keep your costs down to under $10. I think that’s a pretty good deal to get all of that info for less than $10.

Right click on a clear spot on your desktop and choose properties. Then click the "desktop" tab. In the list below note which option is highlighted. If it is a screensaver program or "Internet Explorer Wallpaper" choose "None" from the top of the list and then select a background color from the right lower corner. Select apply, then OK and close the desktop properties. Reboot. It should work correctly now. If it doesn't, you may not have administrator priveleges. Also, you can have this occur if you have a different background chosen in the administrative profile, and then you are using a different profile. To correct this, reboot, hit f8 until you get the option to choose "Safe Mode", choose the "Administrator" account, then follow the directions above to set the administrator account desktop picture to a plain screen color. After rebooting you should be able to get rid of the problem and have your chosen desktop come up each time you boot up.

Try to delete them one by one. First, click on the icon for the screen and then try to click on the boxes related to the backgrounds you want to get rid of.

You could try using system restore.

Try this: on your toolbar Click "STart", then "All Programs", then "Accessories"\nYou should find Paint under that category.\n\nShoot! That's strange!\nthis program;s name is usually located there: %SystemRoot%&#92;System32&#92;mspaint.exe\n\nLook for mspaint.exe. Maybe you moved it by mistake.\n\nAdded Monday afternoon, 4:55pm:\nYou found it? GREAT!!!!\nYou can copy it on your desktop, and lauhch it from there.\nOr ... you can copy it back in the %SystemRoot%&#92;System32&#92;mspaint.exe\n\nI think putting it on your desktop is easier.\n\n:=)

I would try to stay away from downloading free screensavers. They tend to contain a lot of spyware which will result in a very messed up computer.

Hmm did you delete them in the recycle bin? If you did check to see if you can restore them before you remove them. If you empty the recycle bin then.. You sort of lost them. \n\nIf you moved them off the screen try increasing the screen revolution. Once you see the mising icons just move them back to where they were. If you stii do not see them right click->arange icons by-> (Pick your choice) this should re organize your icons but they should all be there.\n\nThe most obvious is  a system restore when all else fails.

GO TO GOOGLE IMAGE SEARCH AND FIND A PICTURE YOU LOVE.  THEN JUST RIGHT CLICK IT AND SAVE IT AS BACKGROUND, AND YOU DON'T EVEN GET SPYWARE!  PLUS, THEY'RE TOTALLY UNIQUE!
