Desktop icons issue

I've searched websites to try and find the solution of this, but can't.

I had a bad spyware infection "Sheriff" something or other, which changed the background of the computer, which I think my computer still isn't over..

The thing that's been bugging me the most: The white/background "fuzz" surrounding all the icons.

It just doesn't look normal as before. :confused:

Anyone know what to do? I've tried the whole "drop shadow" option in performance settings, but it hasn't done it. :mad:

Nahhh. Right click My Computer > Properties > Advanced tab > Settings > Scroll down to make sure "Use drop shadows for icon labels on the desktop" is checked. Repeatedly click OK and you're done.

Actually.. I did a few more spyware scans, and did a restart, and it's back to normal!

I usually don't shut down my computer, just hibernate it, so I guess that's why it didn't take effect.

Thanks.:D
 
Is your background an html file? Try:
Desktop properties > desktop tab > web tab : is anything checked under "webpage"?
