    Hello sazabi2004 and welcome to the forum.

    Having the hard drives shares (administrative share) as C$, D$, etc. is normal behavior for Windows 2000.

    When you say the firewall detected bugs in your OS, please say
    - what firewall you use
    - exactly what bugs it is reporting

    The article md2lgyk posted the link for should have explained the administrative shares for you. It also gave a way to prevent that sharing from taking place.

    This type of hidden share can be very useful if you operate a network but it does mean you need to have good password protection and a good firewall. If you have both of those, it really is not a security issue/problem.

    If your PC is the only one or if your network is very small, there is no real advantage to having the shares so using the method in the article to remove the administrative sharing is probably the best idea for you.
