Screen resoltuon messed up

[Static_Dancer]

My computer was working fine this morning when I left for class. When I came back on at the end of school, I saw that most of the websites I went on (including this one) came out with a light purple background. Where backgrounds were once white, they are now purple. And all pictures, including my desktop pictures are distorted and purplish in random places. I got of the computer and came back a few hours later. After about 10 minutes, avast finds a virus on my computer. I do a boot scan, nothing is found. When my computer loads again, the virus is still there so I moved it to the chest. Nothing was fixed.
Here's a HJT log:

[guestolo]

Can you do the following please

to help clean your temp folders,cookies, etc...
Windows Cleanup! 4.0
Don't run this yet, we'll need it in a bit
Alternate download location if having trouble with the first link

==Download and then Install
Ewido Security Suite

When installing, under "Additional Options" Uncheck "Install background guard" and "Install scan via context menu".

From the main ewido screen, click on Update in the left menu, then click the Start update button.
After the update finishes (the status bar at the bottom will display "Update successful")
Close out Ewido for now, we'll need it later
If for some reason the Updater won't work can you manually download the
Updates from this link after you have Ewido installed
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/updates/

Open Hijackthis>>Open Misc tools section>>
Click "Delete File on Reboot" button
In the File name field copy and paste the following line in bold directly below

C:\WINDOWS\System32\lockx.exe

Then hit the OPEN button
Hijackthis should prompt you that the file will be deleted and too reboot your computer
Don't reboot yet

Instead

Do another scan with Hijackthis and put a check next to these entries:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [stratas] lockx.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [stratas] lockx.exe

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [stratas] lockx.exe

After you have ticked the above entries, close All other open windows, including this one
Leave Hijackthis open and click FIX CHECKED
OK the prompt and exit Hijackthis

RESTART your Computer in SAFE MODE
You can do this by tapping the F8 key as the system is restarting, just before Windows loads, or use the link
I supplied for a more detailed explanation

In safe mode

=Open Windows CleanUp!>>START>>programs>>Cleanup!
Click on the CleanUp button, let it finish scanning for files
DECLINE to Log off or Restart when scan is done.

==Open Ewido Security Suite
Click on the Scanner button on the left menu
Click on the Settings button on the right
Select "Scan Every File"
OK it and then click on the "Complete System Scan"
*If Ewido finds something it will prompt you with "Infected Object found"
Ensure the following are Selected
  *1. Perform Action = Remove
  *2. Create Encrypted Backup in Quarantine (Recommended)
  *3. Perform action with all infections
  Then click OK
When Ewido has finished it's scan click the "Save Report" button
Save the report to desktop
Exit Ewido
*Allow Ewido to run uninterrupted, don't open any other windows

Restart back to Normal mode
Run hijackthis again and post a fresh log
Also include the Whole report from ewido's you saved earlier

Download:  Registry Search Tool from this link
http://billsway.com/vbspage/

Unzip and double-click "RegSrch.vbs"
Note: if your Antivirus or another program prompts about running a ".vbs" file, allow the script to run

In the open field copy and paste the below in bold then hit OK

msdirectx

Wait for the results and post them back here

Do the same for this entry
lockx.exe

Can you also let me know if your Firewall is working properly

I messed up part of that registry fix

We'll deal with it in a bit

From my signature below can you run an online virus scan at Panda's
Select MyComputer
When the scan is done
Save the report and post it back here

[Static_Dancer]

When I do the scan, avast shows that a virus will appear if I continue and gives me the option to "Abort Connection", so I did

[guestolo]

Sorry for the delay
It's a false positive from Avast
Panda is safe to run, you can try right clicking on the Avast Icon by the clock and disable
protections beforehand

However you can't blame Avast
Here's an explanation
http://www.avast.com/eng/faq_panda.html

If you still can't get the Panda scan to run, please try at either
Kaspersky's, Trend Micros or BitDefender
Links are in my signature below

Save a report after running and set to Autoclean when required
