Old wallpaper hung on logon/logoff

I've been racking my brain over this issue for a small while now..i'm a fairly good
geek and even i couldn't figure out how to fix this. The previous owner of this computer
had a porn picture on the desktop set as wallpaper, so of course i changed it. However,
even though it's not on the desktop any longer, i still see the picture pop up when
logging out of Windows, and when logging in. It's like the picture is hung halfway
and i can't figure out how to make it go away. Is there anyone out there who knows
how to clear this problem? I would very greatly appreciate it..thanks for your time.

Guess, He probably set it with IE. If so it would be in the Microsoft, IE Folder,
in Application Data Folder of the User account. You could also try to just set a
New Wallpaper from Internet Explorer, and it would overwrite the old Porn Picture
if we are on the right track.

I was wondering if you ever found a solution to this problem? I'm having the same
issue.
