Miscellaneous

• Windows background is messed up by spyware? My solution is to clean up the registry. I had luck changing the wallpaper by following the instructions here. But all the lables of the icons are boxed! I deleted all the registry entries under HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\ except for "NoDriveTypeAutoRun". That fixed it!
