When trying to open mapped network drives, getting windows cannot find file.exe error

[Mizugori]

when double-clicking on certain mapped network drives from my computer, windows throws an error saying:

Windows cannot find 'diaquacuk.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search.

What is going on? What is this file, (google found nothing) and why is this happening instead of the mapped folder opening?

Thanks!

It sounds like you have a malware infection.

Is there a hidden autorun.inf file on the root of that drive?

Yeah - you have been taken over. You posted this same query here:

I think you picked it up on the web by signing up for something. Assume you are also Mizugori44 with Server 2003?

jesus guys it was a permissions issue. what is it with everyone screaming "virus! spyware!" everytime an issue comes up that they aren't familiar with?

and no, there's no autorun.inf file

While I'm glad you got it fixed, Windows doesn't go looking for randomly-named executables just due to file permission errors...
