XP Homes, when I click on some Control Panel Icons, the black DOS screen
opens.
Click to expand...

Which icons in particular do this?

What happens when you enter the command

EXIT

into the DOS screen?

What antivirus and antispyware programs do you have installed?
Are they fully up to date, with the latest definition files?
Have you done a complete virus and spyware scan of your computer
recently?

Try getting a "second opinion" about any possible viruses or spyware
on your computer by doing a free online scan at one of the following
web sites:
Bit Defender http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html
Trend Micro http://housecall.trendmicro.com
Kaspersky Online Scanner http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner
Panda ActiveScan http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan
WindowSecurity.com TrojanScan http://windowssecurity.com/trojanscan
Webroot http://www.webroot.com/

Good luck
