Hi,
I had a W32.Rontokbro or some s--- virus attack on my laptop. Have managed to clean up the system of this virus with a lot of help from this forum and thanks for that. But lately a new problem has come up. Whenever i double click the c drive icon in my computer i get a Open with... window saying 'Choose the program you want to use to open this file: File C:\'

I hv already tried the "FixDrive.zip" which should correct the problem. The fixdrive thing works but after restarting the laptop the problem remains. Have run chkdsk too, but chkdsk too does not point out any error or problem.


please help

thanks
mm
