Folder's Problems After SP2

[Mike]

Since updating with SP2 on my Windows XP Pro, any folders now if I double
click them, opens Search Results. These folders can be on my desk top, My
Computer, or Explorer. The only way to open any folders now is to right
click the foler, and click explorer, then I can open it.

Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening???

Thanks.......Mike
