My boyfriend, who doesn't know one thing abouts comps, downloaded a pic from
Yahoo Images and it's in my wallpaper choices under "properties". I have
deleted all the temp files, searched,etc and I can't find it. I need to
delete it. I called HP and they said I would have to restore everything on
my comp to factory settings and I would lose everything on my comp! HELP
PLEASE

Don't panic and let HP restore everything, you can find it.

Go back to properties, get the name of the file and search using the
"search for files and folders" again making SURE the file name is
correct. You might want to copy and paste the name into the search
box.

There's several places it might be, look under C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper
and see if it's there, next try My Documents and then My Pictures. If
your boyfriend has a user account, log on as him and look under My
Documents again.

You probably need to have a talk with your boyfriend after you delete
the file.. ;-)
