My son's PC (Dell dimension 3000) with XP Home SP2 got the spyware guard 2009 virus variant. I used spy hunter to almost remove it (it keeps coning back). The problem is at boot, I get the wallpaper screen but no desktop icons. I can access only via task manager. The malware program said 2 windwoo componetns were turned off. I beleive one was display. The wallpaper only happens in safe mode as well.
Is there some KB that can walk me through restoring active desltop & the icons?
Thx
John
