OK.

We should be more or less done now. Are you still having any problems?

everything seems ok except for my desktop backround. When i go to properties, desktop, everything is greyed out and i cant change my backround. They only thing i can do is go to an image and right click it to "set as backround", but i can not choose from the default images in the pull down table, and cant change if i want the picture "centered", "stretched", etc...
Ive run the smitfraud.reg file, and combined it with my registry, and restarted, as ive seen on different sights where people had the same problem, but it didnt solve mine.
Any suggestions?

Go to Control Panel > Display > Desktop > Customize Desktop > Web > untick "security" if present.

Save this reg file to your desktop . Double click it and answer yes to the import prompt.

Restart the computer. If this does not work, I still have a couple of things that I can let you try...
