Thread: Folder

Started 2 months ago by Eric Allen
I have a strange folder that pops up on reboot. There is nothing in it, and I delete it, reboot, and it comes back. I'm running WinXP home with Sp3. My software helpers are MBAM, SAS, MRT, Stinger, and Microsoft Security Essentials but none of them find anything. Can anyone help? .. Eric ..

I don't have a un-rar-er handy, and I'm not sure what good a screenshot would do anyway (unless it is a very strange *looking* folder). Maybe you could tell us something about the folder such as name and location. You could maybe get some hint from the "properties" of the folder (such as "owner" under security).

An image of an empty folder named "Program" is not very helpful toward diagnosis. How about giving the full path of the folder? Go up one level from your screen shot and then right-click the folder and copy-paste the folder's complete path into a follow up in this thread.
