    Go into Display Properties>Desktop tab and click on the Customize Desktop button. In the window that opens, click on the Web tab. Uncheck everything there, click OK, then click Apply.

    See if you can then change the background.

    I've never used Web Shots so I can't offer any help about getting it working.

    The problem with being unable to change the Desktop background is often due to a malware infection.
