Hello all, can someone please help me out with this problem.
I have a Windows 2000 and a Windows XP Home Edition that I've network using a cross-over cable. The W2K is my host and the XP HE is the client that I am trying to scan. I believe it has been infected with a lot of spyware and possible virus that have cause my system to slow down dramatically and have sometime taken over my browser by redirecting and producing a lot of pop-ups. This is what I've try doing so far...I've shared the root of C on the XP and then map it on the W2K but, I am only able to scan (using Norton AV) a few folders and was unable to scan the WINDOWS, PROGRAM FILES and a few other folders. I cannot gain access to these folders. Is there something that I am doing wrong why I can't scan these folders? Can someone please give me a step-by-step approach or point me in the right directions on how to share those folders on the XP, or how to scan an infected PC using another network connected PC to do so. I would really appreciate the help. Thanks
