Default Hidden folders randomly show

My hidden folders just randomly are shown. Ill go and hide them, hibernate my computer then next time I go on they are shown. I also have a problem with a VBS.autorun virus. Norton found it, its quarantined, still is, but anyways after it was quarantined my autoplay no longer works, and i get a error when i try to open my C drive, or my two externals from the my computer window.

Now, I also just installed glary, and used the registry repair tool, and repaired 556 problems. I unchecked anything that said system32 just to be safe. Im not that smart on computers. Anyhow, im not sure which of these is causing my autoplay error, Ill repost the error tommorrow. Im at work now and actually found the time to post. Thanks alot for anyones input

I have a feeling this will be resolved after completing your disinfection in your other thread. Let's re-evaluate this issue upon completion of your disinfection

sousabone3, I just checked. You have four threads open presumably all on the same computer.

This is not productive and will complicate the fixing of your computer.

1. http://www.pchelpforum.com/new-hijac...need-help.html

2. http://www.pchelpforum.com/anti-viru...run-2-v-s.html

3. http://www.pchelpforum.com/monitors/...t-standby.html

And this thread.
