Text is hard to read but it says,

Windows cannot find RECYCLER/desktop.exe Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the start button, and then click search.

I get this error when trying to open up my external HDD, i can still go run G: but it's annoying, i'm doing a full system scan now but no sure if it'll help.

I think it's a trojan.

If you're downloading hacked software, shit's bound to happen.


I have no idea what this could be.

Then why do you expect it's a Trojan?

I did a little searching on Yahoo Answers and this was the closest answer I found to your problem. I don't know if it will help or not but here is what I found.
Your external hard drive must have a file on it that windows cant read and therefor crashes. It is most likely a corrupted video file. If you don't need the data on there just reformat the external drive and the problem will be fixed.

If you need the data, boot windows into safe mode, browse the external hard drive and delete the video files there. You can also do this on someone else's computer instead of going into safemode.

I got a 'Heal' or 'Ignore' AVG pop up, it said it's a Trojan. I healed but it didn't do anything.

I can control my computer from my brothers so i'll do that. The problem is there is 400g of videos on there...

Yeah, thats a lot of videos. I would wait for a better answer from someone else or just go in to safe mode and check it out.

Its a fairly common error that has to do with the autorun.inf

Update and Full Scan with AVG

Download this and run it:
http://www.download.com/Disk-Heal/30...dlPid=10783757

Type in the drive letter and click Fix

Should be good to go, always remember to backup your drives before attempting stuff like this.

Exactly what I thinking, but I wouldn't have had the link to that fix. That would be great to have, just in case something like that ever does happen.
