• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Ever since I visited gta.net and got some lovely malware on my computer, I have been unable to display wallpapers, just an image icon and placeholder (See above image) I have check settings everywhere. What could I be missing? This is very annoying!



 
I am pretty sure the spyware has altered your registry. Give superantispyware and malwarebytes a try.
 
Malwarebytes fixed what Avast, Ad-Aware, and Spybot couldn't find. But nothing has actually fixed the registry, if that is where the problem lies.

I can see my image during startup and shutdown. But after something loads, and I have no clue what process, it goes to the placeholder.
 
PROBLEM SOLVED: created a new user account, deleted the old one. Computer acts like it is a fast as a fresh install.
