View Full Version : Problem with WXP SP2 Desktop Wallpaper selection

Usually when I want to change the wallpaper image on my WXP SP2 PC, I would
right click the desktop, select Properties, and select Desktop. I would
then get a list of .bmp files in C:/Windows to select from.

As of yesterday, when I do the above, I get a list of ALL images on my PC,
not just the ones in C:/Windows. This sudden change may be related to a
malware called Download.Trojan (Windows/System32/jkhfd.dll) which I found
and removed yesterday.

Is there a location in the registry or elsewhere where I can designate a
path to a specific subdirectory where I want to store desktop wallpaper
images?

Thanks, Airpilot

You can look in C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper Folder.
