Seems to be an epidemic lately....
This can be caused by a trojan.
Get rid of the trojan.
Update your antivirus software and run a full system scan.
Copy the autoexec.nt file from C:\Windows\Repair to C:\Windows\System32
And set Attributes for autoexec.nt to Read-only.
Or %systemroot%\Repair to %systemroot%\System32
Read-only
[[Specifies whether this file is read-only, which means that it cannot be
changed or accidentally deleted.]]
1. Right click the file.
2. Properties.
3. Select: ? Read-only.
4. Click: Apply.
5. Click: OK.
