THANK YOU SO MUCH CRUNCHIE, YOU ARE TRULY A BRILLIANT MAN. Did you attend Harvard ? Anyhow, the 1st program seem to have fixed the Wallpaper and Screen saver problem, at least for now. Screensaver tab has come back. but not sure if this is permament ? anyway, i posted the Hijackthis.log. I didn't fix anything there yet. i don't want to fix the wrong thing. Last time i messed with something like this, my computer would Not boot up to windows anymore.

Thank you, but all the credit belongs to those who create tools such as MBAM. If not for them, me and other helpers would struggle a lot more .

You still have a serious infection there, so can you please do the following;

Please download ComboFix by sUBs from HERE or HERE

• You must download it to and run it from your Desktop
• Physically disconnect from the internet.
• Now STOP all your monitoring programs (Antivirus/Antispyware, Guards and Shields) as they could easily interfere with ComboFix.
• Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
• When finished, it will produce a log. Please save that log to post in your next reply along with a fresh HJT log
• Re-enable all the programs that were disabled during the running of ComboFix..

Note:
Do not mouse-click combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.

CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.
