Please advise. When I open My Computer, and right click on C drive, where OPEN should be at the top is foreign gibberish. It doesn't work. Nor does attempting to open the C drive by clicking on it: it asks what application I want to use to do this. I scanned with Norton Internet Security deep scan, very latest definitions and came up clean. Pleae advise.

I solved this problem myself just now by Googling "Ioeauou", the gibberish I see instead of OPEN I mentioned in the help request. Google returned one hit and took to me to "bullguard.com." A lady or gentleman named "Touch - Forum Moderator" at Trojan agent AGEG ? - Free Antivirus Forum (http://bullguard.com/forum/8/Trojan-agent-AGEG-_57769.html) had the solution to my problem. I followed his/her lengthy instructions, and came up fixed and clean. I'm indebted to "Touch - Forum Moderator."

Good day.

It is very simple to correct this problem
Just go in DOS mode by typing cmd in Run
Type cd\ at c: prompt and press (enter)
Then type
Attrib -s -h -r autorun.inf (enter)
Then type

Do this procedure with all your drive letters. Then restart your computer.
