|
|
Lat night I helped fix someones IPOD. After alot of work, using my computer, it was fixed up. The problem now is that it appears my computer has an STD. Everytime I create a new folder it presets with a birds name. I kid you not. Create 3 new folders and I get: "wren", "Chicken", and "grouse." It turns out that the person whose Ipod I fixed has had this issue for over a year- hence why I label it an STD. How do I fix this? |

Try a virus scanner.. Its possible one of the Mp3 on the ipod had a virus in it. |

That sounds suspiciously like the Korean program ����, except of course that names things with bird names in Korean. |

ok, how do I kill it.
Note, the irony is that I'm aviophobic. The one thing I hate/fear in this world are birds, and here... |

As Beaver said, it's the ALZip program that's causing the problem. It's not a virus, I think it's just some kind of strange factory setting...the Korean version will have the bird names in Korean while the English version will have 'em in English. If you haven't already figured it out, most times when you right-click to create a folder, you have the regular Microsoft "new" folder option, but when you have ALZip installed, it also shows up, and it's above the regular Microsoft one - it has an egg next to it(I assume it a bird egg!). Two options: 1. Un-install ALZip. 2. Choose the new (folder) option that doesn't have the egg beside it(the lower one with the black right-arrow beside it). |
