It sounds like NTFS traverse folder denial.

Hi,.
I'm a pretty technical user, and have been living with this issue for
3 years now. It's not worth reinstalling Windows over, but it's
annoying all the same. I'm willing to Paypal $10 to the person who
can solve this for me. I don't have any way to prove that I'll pay
you, but what have you got to lose?
The problem:
I receive a standard Windows error message box "Access denied" when I
double click a shortcut to a folder, or when I go to Start | Run and
type in a folder other than the drive root. These problems happen for
ANY folder on ANY drive.
For example:
C:\windows (doesn't work)
C:\ (does work)
If I navigate to the given folder in Windows Explorer by navigating
through the tree, I can get there, browse, and do anything else I
normally would be able to with no problems.
I'm running Windows XP Pro as a user with complete Administrator
privileges.
I have google'd this problem a dozen times and ended up on the
solution for regaining ownership of a folder after reinstalling
Windows. That is not my problem, and I've tried them anyway, with no
success.
Any help is much appreciated.
