My desktop icons switched to default file icons. All the icons refer to an
LNK file extension. I can no longer open any of my programs through
shortcuts, or by going to them directly in their appropriate folder. No
..exe files can be opened. My files in the start-up tray are all missing as
well. I was able to scan the computer for virus infestation and found it to
be clean. I was running 3 or 4 of the most reputable anti-spyware programs
prior to this event. I am a neophyte with registration entries and such, so
any advice would need to be step by step. I would love to send a hijack
this log, but can't get the program to run for the above stated reason.
Thanks,
Really frustrated
