Greetings,

After downloading and installing the latest virus definitions from *definitions.symantec.com/defs/ it found a W32 Brontok virus on all the system hard disk drives. After successfully deleting the virus, i format only the C: Drive and reinstall a fresh copy of Windows XP Professional. After the installation is done, i can open c: drive as normal, but cannot open the other drives giving me an error message "cannot find copy.exe" as shown on the screen shot below:

the other drives other than c: can though be open by using the Right Click > Open/Explore command. This is really annoying and it would be greatly appreciated if someone had already experienced this kind of problem or have any ideas.

Thanks.

Open regedit and goto:

Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\
Now delete the key MountPoints2.
