Autoplay on mapped network drive????
I have one Windows XP SP3 computer that is doing something very strange. The user has a mapped network drive (S:) to a network location. When she tries to access that drive by double-clicking on it through My Computer, it wants to do an AutoPlay, so it gives the AutoPlay menu. If I right-click on the drive, the first option (the default) is AutoPlay and the next 2 options are written in like hyerglyphics or something...just a bunch of different symbols put together...it's very strange (see attachment). Then I have Search, Disconnect, and other normal options. If I click on the first screwed up option, the drive actually opens in a new window.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks,

The screwy-looking text also fixed itself when I deleted the autorun files.
