Friends whenever i open a data DVD in my explorer all the folder icons and file icons are overlapped by the internet explorer file icon...This happens only when i view my DVD contents. The icons seems to be fine in my other drives...
I have added the screenshot of my problem...

Could anyone help me in this situation....THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Right click on the RAR file then Select open with and the Turn on the option "Allways select this program when opening this kind on files..." and then select winRAR program from the available program list... hope fully it will restore the RAR ICON to those RAR files....

I think you didnt understand the problem....
Actually i can open all the files with their corresponding applications but the only problem is that these file icons are overlapped by the IE 7 icons....This only happens with my data DVDs.
