AVG antivirus detected trojans in ctfmon.exe in the \Recycled folder on my hdds. I deleted them and now windows explorer says access denied when i double-click the drives. however, there's still a way to access the drive, that is by right-clicking the drive and then select "explore". anyone can help me solve the problem ?? Eagerly waiting for the replies. Thank you ^^
" ctfmon.exe is a process belonging to Microsoft Office Suite. It activates the Alternative User Input Text Input Processor (TIP) and the Microsoft Office XP Language Bar. This program is a non-essential system process, but should not be terminated unless suspected to be causing problems." I suggest you move all the data on the drive to an internal drive on the computer, temporarily. Then format the external drive, and move the data back.
Thx for the reply .. but are there any diffrenet solutions other than formatting my external hdd ? My external HDD is 75% full out of 400 GB. well, I'll do the formatting process if this is the only way....
