hello mate I'm pretty sure it's a virus, so my advice is that you format completely your pc. I might be wrong but scan your pc before formatting.

cheers

mr slash ;)

How come ??

It can be only a virus.. it may be an error on drive C:\

Are you sure you've followed the following steps :

The documents you want to view your hidden files - Tools - Folder Options - View - View hidden files?

If this dont work, it might be really a virus, try scanning your drives.

C ya

=========
(Go to Start --> Run, then type Regedit
2. Navigate to the registry folder HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\SHO WALL
3. Find a key called CheckedValue.
4. Double Click CheckedValue key and modify it to 1. This is to show all the hidden files.)

The issue is caused by a virus
I have been seeing a mass amount of cpu @ my shopr with this issue
Its a hidden file virus under autorun.ini and its a trojan
It puts out all sorts of bad files like 0wk2.com, kavo.exe, tavo.exe 1i.com, njc.com
What you need to do is look @ the hidden files from comand prompt by entering the drive you want to scan c:
then type attrib -h this will show you the current hidden files for tha drive copy the file names down (copy paste on notpad) the download tweak ui power tools from microsoft install the stop the auto runs w tweak ui download kill box and enter the hidden files that you found in kill box theis will delet them and stoping the auto runs will stop it from reloading the only ones you dont want to delet or ntdetect.ini, ntuser, bootmgr, pagefile.sys andhiberfile.sys also go to the reg and search and delet tany keys found relating to the viruses i will be posting a better step by step directions later but if your smart enough you should figuer it out

I opened the hidden folder from the execut panel, then right clicked and went to properties where i unchecked the "hidden" option and it appeared!

i found another solution

download this program: Mismasxs (you can find it here http://www.4shared.com/file/38201645/96540a6/MismaSXS_ELIMINAR_VIRUS.html )

it delets the virus that causes the problem in few seconds :)

hi you just go to dos command mode.
change the drive e.g: d:\enter then give command attrib -h -r autorun.inf
again give command attrib -s autorun.inf then give del autorun.inf do thuis for all the drive not opening then restart the computer ui think it will be solved
