good reg file to restore desktop?

T

ToddAndMargo

Hi All,

I do not have a virus. I need help cleaning up after one.
Really, I don't have a virus.

A virus installed several registry settings that won't let
me configure my desktop, especially my wallpaper.

Is there a good .reg file out there that will restore all
my desktop settings back to their original defaults?

Many thanks,
-T

on another machine, the wallpaper tab is there, but the
names of the various wallpapers and the browse tab
are grayed out.

Thank you. Got the tabs back.

Now My "Desktop" tab shows all the wallpapers and
the browse button, but the are grayed out and I can't
click on them.

Have a good .reg for that?

Many thanks,

Do you see that deliberate attempt to steer you in the wrong direction. That
David troll would rather you not fix your system then to have you download
anything from me. Use my Desktop Reset tool. Download it here
http://pcbutts1.com/downloads/tools/tools.htm It works.

David,

I looked at his code in Linux to make sure I was protected.
It looks legitimate. It also looks like he put a bit of
effort into it too. Why do you think his stuff is illegitimate?

As I indicated, the fake MVP did indeed follow.

What you experienced are System and User policies that malware will use to limit you
capability.

Kelly's Corner has many fixes and they are found here...
Search for "Greyed Out" on the following page.
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

The following is one.

These are fixes and they come from a "trusted" source.

There is nothing wrong with my fix tools as you have seen for yourself.
David just does not like me. He worked real hard a few years ago to shutdown
my website. His many attempts failed and he is not over it yet. And you keep
referring to me as he and his, well I am female. You want to know the truth
about me and my files then read my feedback and see what others have said

For many reasons that include, but is not limited to...

He is NOT a Microsoft MVP yet he puports to be one.

He has plagiarized the code from legitimate sources so he hasn't put any effort into them
other then reming the author's attributes and replaing is with his.

One of his plagiarized codes will block access to legitimate anti amwlare sites and to
sites from MVPs such as...
127.0.0.1 www.it-mate.co.uk
127.0.0.1 it-mate.co.uk
127.0.0.1 mysteryfcm.co.uk
127.0.0.1 www.internetinspiration.co.uk
127.0.0.1 www.mvps.org
127.0.0.1 bughunter.it-mate.co.uk
127.0.0.1 www.bughunter.it-mate.co.uk
127.0.0.1 www.siri.geekstogo.com
127.0.0.1 siri.geekstogo.com
127.0.0.1 siri.urz.free.fr
127.0.0.1 www.siri.urz.free.fr
127.0.0.1 noahdfear.geekstogo.com

This is done in a plagiarized version of the MVP Hosts file

Now he'll claim and stomp his feet stating he is a MS MVP yet through tyhe hosts file his
plagiarized utility installs he blocks access to www.mvps.org

"Well the you lied when you said this "I found in Google searches evidence
from Microsoft employees indicating that you are not an MVP" MS would not
post anything saying that for two reasons.

1. Because I am a current MS MVP and they know it.
2. MS employees who deal with this stuff do not posts to newsgroups.

Now do you want to back up your lie by posting a link to that Google search?"

He and his are both the masculine and the neuter gender in
English -- he is using the language correctly. The use of
"he/she" or "he/she/it"n (don't say this one too fast),
although "politically correct", it is grammatically
incorrect. But, if he knows you are a woman, it would be
a bit more polite not to refer to you in the neuter gender.

Do you have a certificate number or some other documentation
you can use to prove you are a MVP? When re-using code
from others, did you remember to reference (footnote) it?

I remember in college that I could write an entire paper
and only use about fifty of my own word by referencing
(footnoting) other people's work. It ain't plagiarizing
if you reference it!

I would settle for the secret password, or the secret handshake,
or the combination to the padlock on the clubhouse door. Maybe
even a good hi-res digital photo of that snazzy MVP lapel pin.

....but I don't see these as forthcoming.

Seriously, good things *can* come from bad sources. Why take
the chance, I wouldn't trust pcbutts based solely on its behaviour
in the newsgroups.

David does not know me, nobody here does. The problem is he thinks he does
and because of that it has cost him a lot of grief, anger, and
embarrassment. The problem is they want to know me they would give anything
to find out my real identity so I will not post the link to my MS MVP
profile. My profile has my real info on it. I know all the evil things they
(David and his troll buddies) or tried to do to the person who they think I
am, and I can prove it, because I have been in contact with people
investigation the threats made to him. I know for a fact that one was
prosecuted and one decided it was not worth it and stopped what he was
doing. I was a witness at the hearing. At any rate what I am trying to say
is that David is not the nice guy you all think he is in these NG's.

Unfortunately "his" claim to being a woman is part of his faux personna. It is part of
his veil of lies to cover his tracks.
Even the female picture on his Blogger site is stolen from somewhre else to falsely
portray him as a woman.

He doesn't ever reference the real authors. He replaces their names with
PCBUTTS1@PCBUTTS1.Com and that's plagiarism.

He has plagiarized whole code which includes, but is not limited to...
* MS MVP Kelly Theriot -- VBS script from Kelly's Korner
* MS MVP Noahdfear -- SmitRem
* MS MVP Winhelp2002 -- MVP Hosts File
* Robert A. Cooper -- NailFix utility (co-authord by Miekiemoes and Swandog46)
* Stuart Saunders -- RogueFix
* Andrew Aronoff -- Silent Runners

Lets list the things you've done in Usenet that David has not done:

PCBUTTS has done the following in Usenet - that none of the rest of us
have done:

1) Posted links to Pornographic material on his pcbutts1.com website
that he's personally created and bragged about and bragged about in
these groups.

2) Posted links to Pornographic material on his Leythos website that
he's personally created and bragged about in these groups.

3) Been exposed as pirating code from other people's apps.

4) Included copyrighted code in his applications which he is not the
copyright holder.

5) Impersonated other members of the community and done so in a bad
manner

6) Impersonated unknowns to show fake support for PCBUTTS1

7) Switched Identities from Male to Female

8) Been exposed with pirated code after fake entries were added to code
of others files - the code appeared in PCBUTTS's code shortly after.

9) Used very foul language in Usenet posts

10) Stalked members of the community in his signature in every post for
a period of time

11) Created a website using a community members name to post hate filled
and pornographic materials and then direct others to it

12) Exposed unknowing people to pornography on his pcbutts1.com website.

13) Improperly hosted vendors apps on his pcbutts1.com website without
being an authorized mirror and without following the vendors rules for
hosting the applications.

14) Regularly posted links to exe files on his pcbutts1.com website
without giving the author/vendor credit for the work - taking credit for
the resolution himself.

15) Puts entries into your HOST file that BLOCK ACCESS TO REPUTABLE
ANTI-MALWARE SITES WITHOUT TELLING YOU.

16) Has lost any respect from the community because of his actions and
many more that have not been listed.

No other member of the community has done all of those things, only
PCBUTTS has done all of those things......
