I seem to have several phantom Local Disks mapped to different letters, they are of 0 bytes in size?
Strangely they do not show up when i view my drives through windows explorer but if i open an application such as ACDSee Pro or MS Word and then go to open a file i can see all these Local Disks mapped to different letters.
This means when i plug in my external hard disk it ends up mapped to letter R instead of its usual G which messes up any programs i have pointing to it by default.
How did they get there and more importantly how do i get rid of them please??
