Well if any of you out there have ever tryed to change the default windows XP folder and suddenly found your self mistically unable to open any folders without getting anything but the folder you wanted to look in then you will understand the frustration i have been facing durring the last week.

This is the second time I have come accross this really annoying bug. The first time it happend after several weeks of trying to fix the problemthe first time I resored to formating the computer.

This time however I managed to find the solution after trawing the net for serveral weeks. Anyway for any other poor soles suffering from this particular file folder affliction here’s the link to the solution.
