I didn't find anything regarding this particular problem. k9 on "double clicking problem" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/double-clicking-problem#post-36361 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 16:25:58 +0000 k9 36361@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ Try this... Go to command prompt(start > run > cmd) and go through these steps:- 1) cd\ Now you should see something like C:\> being displayed (I'm assuming that C is where your OS is installed) 2) attrib -h -s -r *.inf 3) del *.inf If this doesn't work then I think the virus still exists on your computer (It will automatically create the .inf file) Also, found this on googling - <a href='http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_139985.htm'>http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_139985.htm</a> Lighthouse on "double clicking problem" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/double-clicking-problem#post-36352 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 15:57:31 +0000 Lighthouse 36352@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ k9.

Not necessarily. It could just be a messed up association. k9 on "double clicking problem" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/double-clicking-problem#post-36343 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 15:41:07 +0000 k9 36343@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ You are/were infected with a virus. I suggest you scan your system with an anti virus to remove the virus if it is still present in your system. Next, check your startup items using msconfig and the services which start automatically for any unknown items and remove them. Scan your system with HiJackThis and paste the log file here for investigation. I think some random DLL maybe executed by the virus using rundll32 which causes this kind of behavior. nandun on "double clicking problem" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/double-clicking-problem#post-36342 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 15:37:59 +0000 nandun 36342@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ in relation to my above query i would like to no whether this can be repaired without formatting my hard disk nandun on "double clicking problem" http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/double-clicking-problem#post-36338 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 15:29:07 +0000 nandun 36338@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ when i double click my hard drive icon in my computer it opens with the "open with" window box not the normal way how do i fix it
