    Hello All,

    After all, I have found the answer to visit this website in my Yahoo Answers.

    I have Windows XP with sp2.

    In Windows Explorer I have kept the settings as Show Hidden and System Files, Show extensions etc.

    Suddenly since 2 days suddenly the extensions have become invisible and hidden files and system files became invisible.

    I thought of changing the Tools -> Folder Options and change it, but that option it self is not there !

    THE FOLDER OPTIONS IT SELF IS MISSING IN THE TOOLS MENU !

    I know this is some kind of a virus or something like that, anyone please help me in removing this.

    I use NOD32 and it shows no virus found, I have used the Yahoo toolbar Anti Spy and it detected some spywares and removed it but still the same situation. :confused: I dont know what to do.

    This is very urgent and the data in my pc is very important.

    Thank you very much.

    Regards,

    Jagat.
    :rolleyes:
