The only reason I can think of is that someone installed an autoexecutable
application that does that for you (look in the win.ini file under
'run=').  I have seen a number of programs for windows that will do just
that, altho I have never used one.

Also, when you are changing the wall paper, try using the 'control panel'
program.  Within this utility there is a 'desktop' icon that when you select
it will bring up a dialog box that will, among other things, allow you to
change the wallpaper.  This is a little bit easier than having to change
the initialization files manually.
