Default why the disk in not opening


Hi
in one of our computer whenever we double click any of the partitions it is not opening and showing the following message in a pop up small window.

" windows cannot find 'copy.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the start button, and then click search. "
we are right clicking on any partition and clicking open or explore then it opens.
Please help.

Agree, it sounds like something I had about a month ago, it is more then likely a trojan. I use ewido's online scan, but try scanning with you AV scanner. you could also try smitfraudfix or hijackthis!

thanks anandk and Liggy, but online scanning and hjt may be a problem since the pc is in a small town and does not have a internet connection, let me see.
