I believe that this may be a relatively NEW bug/problem after checking several tech support forums and finding nothing related.
After surfing I picked up some sort of problem. This first started out by replacing my desktop screen with a warning that I may have been infected with spyware. After clicking on the link provided it brought me to a webpage that advertised "Smart Security Privacy Protection Tool" and provided additional info to attempt to frighten someone into purchasing the software to remove spyware. The web address was 213.159.117.130/?affid=NAT-5.
Desktop icons, browser and other software all function normally.
New desktop icon/shortcut was "! Smart Security"-I have since deleted
After deleting this and a couple associated files my desktop background changed from the warning to an alternating gray and white.
I have used Ad-aware, spybot, and norton (latest versions) with no additional success. However, abnormal files in c:\program files\internet explorer were dchxuqbd.exe, gcdmkhfu.exe, and gkwfryiw.exe which I could not delete or uninstall but are no longer found (after ad aware).
Hijack log does not appear abnormal.
Right clicking on my desktop background and selecting view source provides the following notepad document:

Right clicking on the desktop background and clicking properties provides

Still the background of my desktop is alternating gray and white and may send me into a seizure before long.
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance.

You should first try booting into Safe Mode and running the programs you mentioned. While in Safe Mode, delete the contents of all Temp and Temporary Internet folders for all users. Also, do a search for *.tmp and delete all those files as well.
Reboot normally and go to this thread and follow any of the recommendations you haven't already tried:
http://daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread5690.html
After that, post a hijackthis log in the Security forum (even if it doesn't look 'normal').

Hi. First of all you need to update hijackthis to version 1.98.2. Run hijackthis & go to *Config\Misc Tools\Check for update on-line*. If the site is down, go here. Remove the old version by deleting the file manually. Unzip the new version into the hijackthis folder.
Looks like that log was done in safe mode? If so, please do this; Hit Start\Run and type in *Msconfig* without the asterix and hit ok. Then go to the startups Tab and make sure that everything there is enabled to start.
Reboot your PC and rescan with hijackthis and post that log here please.
