Answer» Dell GX240 tower
Windows XP Pro
Pentium 4 processor
Last night, without a user, All the shortcuts for firefox got changed to shortcuts for remote shutdown. I discovered this this morning attempting to launch firefox from the desktop shortcut.
CHKDSK found nothing, VirusScan found nothing.
Command prompt does not recognize firefox as an operable program.

Please help me figure out why the shortcuts changed.I'm running panda now and will post results.Find the actual firefox exe file and try it. You can only use the DOS command prompt to run DOS programs!okay. firefox still works. . .
BUT WHY DID [highlight]ALL[/highlight] THE FIREFOX SHORTCUTS CHANGE TARGETS? No idea. What did the virus scanner say?virus scan found nothing. Panda still scanning. Do i need to post nore info for you guys? The firefox shortcuts all changed targets----to the SAME target (remote shutdown)panda just finished. it found nothing. nothing at all. :-?Delete the existing FireFox shortcuts including the quick launch and tray ones if you have them.
Create new ones by using Windows Explorer and right clicking the FireFox.exe file...
Did you happen to grab the latest FireFox update ? ? I've read of some glitches but according to my research this was not one that was reported...
There is a new update released today as well go ahead and grab it.

Quote Delete the existing FireFox shortcuts including the quick launch and tray ones if you have them.
How do i delete the ones in the system tray? Quick launch?

How do I makesure they don't all turn into shutdown shortcuts again? And WHY did they change?System Tray and Quick Launch = right clik and select Delete...
As to why they changed i have not a clue...do other PEOPLE use this machine ?
Did you have an improper shutdown ?
Have you ran all malware protection programs other than the 2 you mentioned ?
Are you running low on disk space ?
The list as you see can grow quite rapidly.
Let us know.
patio. 8-)Not improper shutdown.
May run Adaware and spybot.
I was the last one to use it last night. . .and as far as i know, the first to use it this morning. Maybe a friend did it as a trick? Although if that's true, shame on him, I'd've MADE the shortcuts all go to hardcore porn sites. Muwahahaahaha.probably. since adaware and spybot both came up empty.
DLoad and update and run Ewido...
