    Hello to all,
    While looking around in the properties section of C I noticed that under the sharing tab, that I am sharing my C drive. The feild is set to maximum users and C$ is in the other feild. I clicked do not share and rebooted, but it returned. I am running:
    • XP Professional SP2
    • 2.0 Ghz P4
    • Norton System works 04
    • Spyware Blaster
    • Spybot search & destroy
    • Ad Aware Se
    • Regseeker
    • CC
      All running with latest updates.
      Any and all help is appreciated, I hope I have provided enough info to get things started, thanks.

    OK, ran all the scans and cleaned up a few files. But when I log in as the admin, and right click on my hard drive the "sharing" opton is not there? What would you guys reccomend next? Thanks so far.

    The c$ is a default administrative share. Quite normal.

    Thanks, so I have nothing to worry about then. I am paranoid becouse where I work a few people open every attachment and download everything, and I have to be on the network so I am always scanning and checking up on things.
