My computer was hacked and 2 new folders with blank names are create in my harddisk. The 2 folders also have lots of sub directories with system names like com1.
I used the command
RmDir \\.\C:\hacked folder /s
After this, I cannot access the hacked folder anymore. The folder also lost its security tab. Why and how does this happen? I tried to use RD /S command but it does not work in my case.
What can I do?
 
See link to Karl's FAQ and a KB article that may help. The FAQ also has information
on how to secure your computer to help prevent such hacking in the future. -- Steve
