From: David Alves on 12 Jun 2010 13:38 Good day everyone! I have problems with my windows XP Pro service pack 3. Every time that I open a folder windows will go straight to search mode and not to open/explore mode. I thought it was a question of settings with explorer or folder's properties but I cannot find them or maybe I clicked the wrong settings. At worst is it a virus problems (most unlikely! I guess)?? Please do not waste your time and mine with some vague answers.........be specific!!!!....thanks in advance David
