Okay, so I'm not too familiar with DOS, but I know enough that something is wrong here. When I use the run box to open a "cmd" window, the
prompt opens, loads, and then closes in about 2 seconds total. This only happens when I use cmd, as command and command.com still function
properly to the best of my knowledge... Also, upon using "ping" for an IP or a website, the prompt freezes and then closes. Is this the result of a
script error or something more along the lines of a viral problem. This has been going on for a while now and is quite annoying. Any help/advice
appreciated. Thank you for reading.
