Fix Windows Vista black desktop on Startup
Hi
This problem causes windows to startup to a black screen, with only the “Documents” folder open, once you close it, the screen is all black, no start menu , no background, no icons.
The causes of this are not very clear to be but i suggest that it is related to some form of new virus or malware.
To correct this do the following:
- On the black desctop screen, hold Ctrl + Shift + Esc
-The tast Manager will appear, from the file menu, select run and write “explorer” without the quotations.
-Your computer will load the start menu and will work correctly.
Until now, we still haven’t fixed the problem, the next time you boot your computer , you will have to repeate the same procedure.
Speed up your computer while using Kaspersky antivirus
If you have a multi-core processor, (with hyper-threading at least) you give your computer a little speed boost by limiting the antivirus and any other security firewalls to use only one core.
To do that simply identify the antivirus process from the task manager (avp.exe for kaspersky), then right click it and select set affinity.
deselect all but one core.
Thats it!
set affinity to antivirus
This method may work with other antiviruses, but I just tested it on Kaspersky 2009
Removing Antivirus killer viruses
A new wave of virus such as Win32/Sality and many others attacks almost every famous antivirus and sabotages it in every possible way.
I have seen Kaspersky antivirus 7, Kaspersky 2009, norton 360, and mcafee burn to the ground because of these attacks.
The irony is that in some cases even the antivirus executable gets infected
The solution I found to clean your sorry system is as follows:

Virus preventing kaspersky antivirus from starting
Some new viruses have the ability to prevent kaspersky from starting, and from ever being installed.
The solution is simple go to the kaspersky installation directory (usually C:\Program Files\Kaspersky Lab\Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009)
Find AVP.exe (not avp.com) and rename it to anything else, for example avpx.exe
start it! now it should work and take care of the virus preventing it’s start, if it didn’t find the virus quickly update it and perform a full scan.
If kaspersky still can’t be started, reinstall it, or just buy another antivirus.
