typing in cmd or command in the "run" program from the
start menu. the dos window pops up and then immediately
shuts down. why????, how do i fix this???
 
Perform a full system scan with an updated virus scanner--it is likely that
you are infected by one of the viruses that blocks command functions to
prevent removal.
