your computer may affected by adware,malware or root-kit etc internet worm which symantec cannot guess try spyware doctor or avg anti-spyware,anti-rootkitor, lavasoft antiadware etc special software which work much than security suite in such condition
Reply:I got this problem sometime ago. What happens is that sometimes when viruses are deleted after affecting some file in ur C drive u get that message.


What u do is right click on it then select "Explore"
Reply:It is due to virus infection on autorun.inf file in C drive. This file may be quarantine or deleted by anti virus. You can recover quarantine file to solve the problem, but this is not fully safe. Only the way to solve this problem is format the drive.
Reply:open command prompt


then go to ur C drive (C drive not on any folder)


type


attrib autorun.inf -s -h -r [enter]


now type and enter


del autorun.inf [enter]








go to each drive of ur hard disk using command prompt and repeat the same procedure





now u can access ur drives


but buddy





u will also be having some other problems also like


1) right now u r not abled to access task manager or


2) u may also not be able to use folder options





these are other issues which i wont be telling here. ask some other time





and also dont forget to remove the virus u still have by using some good antivirus

Reply:try rebooting your computer.....





PC's act funny like that... it's happened to me before as well.





Try right-clicking your C drive and choose open. If it opens, you probably just need to reboot
