Can't right click.

[cjb445]

I am not able to use the right click on my mouse anymore on the desktop. And my desktop has 2 icons for every program. I have a wireless mouse and have checked all the settings. I have hooked up a hard wire mouse just to check. Still no right click. Added extra user just to check. Still no right click. I also have double icons in my user, but not in other users? Have the problem for over a year. To far back to run a back-up. Running XP 5.1 service pack2, Dell dimiension 4550.

What protection do you have??
Can you use the right click in programs or in windows explorer??

1.download superantispyware http://www.superantispyware.com/

I can't right click in any programs or IE. I run Ad-aware, McAfee, CCleaner, and I have Hijackthis.

You could post the HighJackThis log, and one of our experts will come around soon to tell you about it.

cjb445,

Copy & paste the following into notepad and save it as fix.reg (be sure to change the Save as type to "All Files")

Code: [Select]

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoViewContextMenu"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Restrictions]
"NoBrowserContextMenu"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]
"Common Desktop"="C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Desktop"


Then double-click the fix.reg file and choose Yes to add the information to the registry. After it has been imported successfully reboot your computer.
That should fix your right-click and double-icon problems but keep in mind that this will only treat the symptoms and not the cause. I agree with the previous posters that you should post a HJT log into the virus section, whatever caused this is probably still there.

Good luck,
JPH

Patch entered but nothing changed. How do I post my hijack log?

[Comp Guy]

Copy and paste??

[cjb445]

File exceeds 1000 characters. Cannot post.

[Richenstony]

Cut it in half and post twice.

cjb445,

Are you sure that you are using the latest definition files for you AV and Ad-aware? Also, are you doing your scans in safe mode?

The reason I ask is, just by glancing at your HJT logfile I can see various spyware and trojan infections that should have been detected and removed if your protection was up-to-date.

Please update Ad-aware and your AV to the latest versions/detection databases and do full system scans in safe mode. After that boot back into normal mode, run another HJT log and post the new logfile.

- JPH
