    Hi all,
    I've always had a My Documents shortcut on my desktop well for some reason today it has decided it's a Security Alert when I click on it then says: Your current security settings do not allow this action. Any idea on how to change this??? Now I can go to Start and get to it that way and it opens fine, just not if I make a shortcut to my desktop.
    I'm using Windows XP Home...Its the only icon on my desktop doing that....

    Thanks, Rhonda

    FIXED: One thing I hadn't done was run my AVG Virus on that folder, did that and it had 2 Trojans!!!!! Cleaned that out and works like a charm now!
