Hi, my PC is connected to a network in the building where I live. We can share all our drives to the other people in the building. This is dangerous, because everytime my pc has booted...all of my drives are automaticly shared. When I disable the share to my C-drive there's no problem but when I restart the PC it's shared again.

I do want to share my d-drive and my zip-disk so I can't disable file sharing. Who can help me with this problem? I've never heard off this before. Thanks in advance. Robbert van Spronsen
 
Hello skrobbert!

It sounds like a virus.
Try to install a anti virus program and se if the problem still exists. You can also: Right click Network (on the desktop) -> Click Properties -> Click on the File and Printer sharing button -> make sure the two options is unselected. If your drives is shared after your computer is restarted then you should hurry up with that virus protection.
