Basically, the victim's normal wallpaper, or desktop background will be replaced with a sign reading 'U.Z.A. Operating System' in big white letters over a black background. The malware infection behind the 'U.Z.A. Operating System Wallpaper' fake wallpaper also creates an icon near the system tray, trying to create the appearance that the infected computer's operating system has been replaced with the fictional U.Z.A. Operating system. ESG security researchers advise that this is not the case. Rather, the worm behind this change to your desktop background simply wants you to believe this.

What Causes the Appearance of the 'U.Z.A. Operating System Wallpaper' Fake Wallpaper?

The 'U.Z.A. Operating System Wallpaper' fake wallpaper is a definitive sign of a U.Z.A. O/S Eliminator worm infection. This is a dangerous worm infection which can quickly spread from one computer to the other through any removable drives connected to the infected computer system. This happens because, apart from forcing the victim's computer to display the 'U.Z.A. Operating System Wallpaper' fake wallpaper, the U.Z.A. worm also creates a folder named 'My Personal Data' or 'My_Personal_Data' on any removable drives connected to the infected computer system. This folder actually contains the malicious worm behind the 'U.Z.A. Operating System Wallpaper' fake wallpaper as well as an autorun configuration which causes 'U.Z.A. Operating System Wallpaper' to be opened as soon as the removable drive is plugged into a computer system.

Removing the 'U.Z.A. Operating System Wallpaper' Fake Wallpaper from Your Computer
In the first place, it is crucial to understand that your operating system has not been removed. The worm behind this change to your wallpaper does not have the capacity to actually delete your operating system. Rather, 'U.Z.A.

ESG security researchers recommend starting up your computer system in Safe Mode and then using a reliable anti-virus application to remove the U.Z.A. worm from your computer. It is also very important to make sure to remove any instances of this malware infection on any removable drives that have had contact with the victim's computer system as well as any computer systems that may have had contact with potentially-infected drives.
