Autorun on C drive

[Christopher]

I have a problem where instead of the default action on
the C drvie being open, it is an autorun command that
looks for a setup file. For some reason and autorun.ini
and a setup.exe file were created in the root directory.
i have since deleted the files, the default action hasnt
disappeared. Any suggestions??

Thanks,
Christopher

try msconfig
start>run>msconfig>
at startup there , uncheck anything related to c:\autorun.ini or setup.exe

Did you restart the unit after deleting? Also check if the file autorun.inf is there.
