Your profile either corrupted or you have an Active web background set.
Try this:
Right click on your Desktop then select properties. On the Display
Properties click on Desktop Tab.
On the Desktop tab window click on Customize Desktop then click on Web tab
and make sure nothing checked there. Click [OK] and Reboot your machine, does
it help?.
