Hi John,

If I am following you correctly, check your settings here:
Start/Run/Regedit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders

In the right pane there should be a string value listed as Common Desktop
set to:
C(?):\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop

All the Best,

start, search , files & folders. Search for files or
folder name the one you are searching for. Good Luck. les

Hi Brenda,

Check here:  Right click your Desktop/Properties/Desktop/Customize Desktop/Web.

The pictures that show up under display properties, desktop are located in these folders:

C:\Documents and Settings\user name\My Documents\My Pictures
C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper

If that doesn't remove it, check your settings here:

Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key:

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop

Locate the SCRNSAVE.EXE entry in the right pane and modify it to the one you  desire.  SCR files are located in Windows\System32 by default, but you may have some add-on screen savers in the Windows folder.

Change Screensaver Automatically in the Registry (Line 97)
