I found this on the web
I thank all of you who have helped me on this little glich. I think the
problem got solved. I went TO C:\WINDOWS\REPAIR to my windows and repair
folder. I copied and pasted the AUTOEXE.NT file in the SYSTEM32 folder and
now it is working like the way it should be.

Thank you all

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT.

Seems to be an epidemic lately....

This can be caused by a trojan.

Get rid of the trojan.

Update your anti virus software and run a full system scan.

Copy the autoexec.nt file from C:\Windows\Repair to C:\Windows\System32.
And set Attributes for autoexec.nt to Read-only.

Read-only
[[Specifies whether this file is read-only, which means that it cannot be
changed or accidentally deleted.]]

1. Right click the file.
2. Properties.
3. Select: Read-only.
4. Click: Apply.
5. Click: OK.
