i seem to have a problem with hard drives on two different computers. When i double click my computer it opens up ok. Then when I right click C instead of my hard drive showing search, open etc. I get funny symbols and letters! when I try to open C. A message comes up saying "C:autorun.vbs"
what does all this mean?
help somebody please!

Do a search for that file and delete it. That should solve the problem.

The original post said nothing about an internet connection problem. How did that start?
