Can someone explain how the desktop.ini files are losing the 'hidden'
atttribute? I have not seen anything out there that explains how this is
happening.

Yvonne,
No idea how the file was created in the drives/folders. Perhaps they are
transferred when you copied a folder structure from the hard drive, or
when
you customized a folder icon or thumbnail icon in the folder properties?
If that's not the case, it's a good idea to scan for Viruses.

I do have another related question, though - how on earth did I get
these
"desktop.ini" files on my computer - I didn't make any folder changes
or
anything and neither did the other users of the computer and why did
the
"desktop.ini" file appear on the USB flash drive and the 3.5 floppy
disk?

I am getting a couple of copies of the desktop.ini file opening up in
notepad
when I boot my computer. This desktop.ini file is also appearing in
the
"All
Programs" directory on the Start menu. The file also appears in
various
other directories.
No matter where I go, even on my floppy drive or my USB drive, I
find
the
file - it's following me everywhere.
What do I do to get rid of this file from all of my USB drives,
floppies,
directories, etc?
