Hi guys,
I'm looking at a vista laptop that's displaying some very strange behavior; not matter what I download and from wherever and using any browser, the download instantly disappears! It doesn't get sent to the recycle bin and it isn't being quarantined by the av (avast). When using windows mail attachments will no longer open from the message/program and trying to save it anywhere on the system results in a 'no space available' message. The owner has had to resort to dragging the attachments to the desktop and opening from there.
Any ideas? The system is seemingly 'clean' and the problem feels more like a system setting than a virus/spyware
Thanks.
