file folder problem
hello, i am a new forum user and i saw an answer to my problem, but it wasn't the same in my o.s. . i am running xp pro. i changed something in the way the folders open and now when i click on a folder, i get a command prompt. i went to the registry and looked for a directory folder and i didn't see one. they said to go to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and find a Directory file and change the
shell value, but i didn't find it. any ideas? thanks a lot for your
help. i think the person who answered was levi or levy. if you are out there still i would appreciate a hand.

I'm not sure I understand what the problem is. A command prompt opens when you double-click on a folder?

that is correct. when i click on a file folder, it opens up a command prompt. instead of opening the folder.

sounds like you have been hit with a trojan/virii. I would reccomend you get your system checked by an online scan.
you can get oen done here
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ mind you .. it takes a while and you need a good internet connection for this.

If it detects anything i suggest you also stop by this other forum by the same creaters of this forum where they will be able to help you clean your system out completely.
http://forums.devshed.com/f117/s
If you do go there remember to read the sticky threads atop the forum

If you dont have ay traces of trojans/virii on your system try running the following code and see if it helps. i dont think it will but try anyways

To run the code just copy paste the code into a file in notepad, set the save as type field to allfiles and save the file as anything you want with the extension .reg Then double click the file to run it.

Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cmdfile]
@="Windows NT Command Script"
"EditFlags"=hex:30,04,00,00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cmdfile\DefaultIcon]
