If you get a virus, run the scans on -all- user accounts.

A while ago, my computer got one. Of course, it was sorted, but when I was on another user account, the background was the most outrageous shade of BLUE I had ever seen. So I went to the desktop settings to change it to something easier on the eyes.

No tabs to change it.

Knowing that I got rid of the virus, I knew that shouldn't have happened, so I fired up a quickscan on MalwareBytes.

Sure enough, 6 registry entries with names akin to "wallpaper.hijack" and the like. Crushed them.

So, if you get a virus, scan every user account just to make sure.

I think if you are the ADMIN that would automatically be taken care of. But nice point you made there.

[Siegfred]

Nope. It didn't. All accounts on this computer are admin.

Good to know. I'm on the verge of being obsessive about running scans on mine. There's so much crap out there trying to get in.

NoScript FTW.

I find NoScript a pain. So many sites use Javascript that I spend more time disabling it than anything. I uninstalled it.
