I'm unable to open my local drives(C:\,D;\,etc.).It says 'System cannot find C:\'.Please read more details!

But when I type 'c:\' or so in the address bar , I can actually access the drive(s).I'm able to open other files,programs ,etc.Currently I started a virus scan using avast! version 4.7.It found some Virus/malware by the name amvo0.dll and .exe , amvo1.dll.I had also unplugged the network cable but then plugged it when I could access drives from the address bar.





The problem-I cannot navigate to my drives with a click from "My Computer"

Reply:Step 1: Make sure that you have an up to date antivirus program. If you don't, install AVG. You should only have one antivirus program. (If you need to uninstall your antivirus, use RevoUninstaller)


Step 2: Visit the Google Pack website, and use it to download Spyware Doctor.


Step 3: Download and install ThreatFire.


Step 4: Make sure to use Mozilla's Firefox from here on out. Also, install the Adblock Plus and NoScript add-ons for it.
