MyDocuments visualization in winxp

Opening MyComputer I have all my stuff (shared folder/myname documents
folder/hard drives/removable drives), however the myname documents folder
doesn't contain any more my documents (it's empty). If I right click on it
and select properties I see that there is an incorrect path
c:\documentsandsettings\networkservice instead of
c:\documentsandsettings\myname\documents.
Given that I have absolutely no idea of what could have caused the change,
I'm unable to set the correct path for that folder.
I can select it but not edit it.
I have already posted this problem on the italian windowsxp newgroup without
any success so any suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks
 
Make a copy of the files in;
%userprofile%\My Documents
(or wherever they're located)

Then right-click My Documents|Properties|Target|Move and point back to
%userprofile%\My Documents and copy the file back (if required).
