Look for for a bitmap image called something similar to logow in the
Windows directory which is C:\Windows. Open the logos with a picture viewer
such as Irfanfiew, but do not change the suffix. Once you find the
offensive desktop bitmap, you can delete it.

Hi Joe,

I tried your suggestion of running and cleaning the system with Spybot. I
also reran Ad Aware and Pest Patrol and none of them removed the nazi
swastica graphic alteration to the "None" pattern in Control Panel
-Display-Background (none) -Patterns(none).

Is there somewhere in the Windows system where there is a file that
contains
or controls the background pattern used in Display? If so, can it be
altered
or replaced. Do you or does anyone know the name of the file or how to
accomplish this.

In the Windows 98, Control Panel, Display, Background, Wallpaper (None) I
found that the Pattern for the (None) selection had been set to create
Swastikas when I selected the (None) selection for Wallpaper and (None)
selection for Patterns. The pattern for that selection is not editable,
while
all the others are.

I have run every conceivable anti-virus program as well as spyware and
adware programs to try to remove this setting.

Is there a file somewhere that controls the default setting for
Background,
Pattern (None)? I would like to remove this offensive symbol from my
computer.

Thanks for you kind assistance.
