I have completed the scan and am ready with my update. As for problems, as I said, I couldn't locate the WindowInstallSystem program to disable or stop it. Also, since I deleted Viewpoint, I did not actually have the HJT entry to delete - "O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ViewMgr] C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Viewpoint Manager\ViewMgr.exe"
Currently, the only noticable change since before going through these steps is that now I can see the desktop unobstructed, but the wallpaper is still not there. I'm including both the log from Kaspersky and a new HJT log below. Thank you again. Let me know how I should proceed.
