Hi
Using thunderbird. But after ten days when I opened it there were folders in the left information bar which displays all the folders.
There were two subfolders: desktop.ini and folder.htt under every folder.
This looks very unneat.
Show me the way you all geeks.

AntiVirus is very much needed. Do get one!
For now get McAfee Stinger and run it.
Get an full fledged AntiVirus like AVG 7 Free Edition or NOD32...

Download HijackThis (HJT) from here:

Refer this tutorial on using HJT:

Run it, copy the log file it generates and paste its contents here so we can take a look.
