By all the gods... :? I was playing around with new icons and stuff in WinXP and all of a sudden I can´t open a folder! When I double-click one it automatically starts a search of that folder instead of opening it and showing its contents.
I tried reverting to the standard icons but it didn´t do any good!

Please HEEEEEEEEELP!

Here´s what happens. Instead of showing the contents of the folder it starts a search:
