NEW FOLDERS AUTOMATICALLY NAMING THEMSELVES

HI,

WHEN I OPEN/CREATE A NEW FOLDER, IT AUTOMATICALLY RENAMES ITSELF AS SOME
SORT OF BIRD... MAGPIE, HERON ETC. THIS, TO ME, IS STRANGE ANY SUGGESTIONS?

In answer to both your posts:

The First Question Of Troubleshooting: what changed between the time
things worked and the time they didn't?

The Second Question of Windows Troubleshooting: what is the
malware/virus status of the machine? If you think it is clean, what
programs (and versions) did you use to determine this?

Be sure the computer is clean:

Simply click New folder to create one ('directory' and 'folder' refer to the same thing). The default folder name will be a species of bird. New folder functions the same as New --> Folder in Windows Explorer. Using the ALZip New folder function is simply much faster and more convenient than the traditional Windows Explorer option - one click as opposed to clicking, repositioning your cursor, and waiting for a flyout menu.

You have this program installed, per chance?
