Got stuck following instructions

Okay! That's because HSremove has already been run and has changed the symptoms. Please follow the below guidelines and post your complete HJT log. Also, tell me your expected (desired) home page.

Make sure you have HJT Version 1.98.2 and follow the guidelines on where to install it and how to post a log as an attachment. This is all covered in the sticky thread NO HIJACK THIS LOG FILES BEFORE READING THIS: HJT Tutorial & LOG File Posting

Now post a HijackThis as a .txt file attachment to your message. All running programs should be closed, including your web browser, e-mail. Close before running Hijack This!

To repeat: Do NOT run Hijack This from the Desktop, a temp folder, or a sub-folder of C:\Documents and Settings, or choose to run it directly from the downloaded ZIP file. Place it in its own folder, for example C:\Program Files\HJT

 

You really must get your updates from Microsoft! You are out of date and that is not safe.

Please download the lastest HijackThis (just came out) and use it from now on: HijackThis 1.99

Make sure you have system restore disabled and viewing of hidden files enabled.
Run HijackThis and select the following lines but DO NOT CLICK FIX until you exit all browser sessions including the one you are reading in right now:

Boot into safe mode and use Windows Explorer to delete:
C:\WINDOWS2\System32\runsrv32.exe


Let's Reset Web Settings now:
Right click on your desktop Internet Explorer icon and select Properties. Then click the Programs tab and then click "Reset Web Settings". Now go back to the General tab and set your home page address to www.aol.com. Click Apply. Click Delete Cookies, Click Delete Files and select Delete all Offline content too, Click OK. When it finishes Click OK.


Now reboot in normal mode and post a new HJT log. And tell us how things are working.

If your background is still messed up! Right click on your Desktop, select Properties and then change your background.

 

You log looks good. For the Desktop problem, try this.

Right click your Desktop, select Properties, Desktop tab, click Customize Desktop, click Web tab. Make sure down at the bottom you do not have Lock Desktop items checked. Also in the Web Pages box make sure nothing is checked and tell me what you see in that box.
