What is this and why is my computer looking for it all of
a sudden??
My Hard drive is listed as the F drive so why is this
thing looking for C:\243461.bat?
Any ideas what I can do to fix this
Thx

It sounds like something installed that assumes the presence of C:
Since this does not apply to your system, the path cannot be executed.

May want to do a search for 243461.bat. If located, review its contents
using Notepad (right click, choose Edit).

Do you recall installing something recently that is likely to run a .bat
file? Did you double click an attachment or approve a download from a
website that may have installed "something" behind your back? Have you
scanned your system with an up-to-date antivirus?

If the message appears at startup, check Start> Run> MSCONFIG for more
clues about where and why this message is appearing.
