My Music Folder has gone crazy

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

My Music Folder has lost its mind. The other day most files(not all)
disappeared from the folder with no trace. I ran a search for files but could
not find. Now the funny part is all my music files are still in WMP iTUNES
and RA. When i nright click on any file in my library of WMP it show the file
location still being that of My Music Folder. Also I went to try to
re-download files to My Music Folder but it tells me that, the file already
exists in this folder do you want to replace it. There are still 14 files in
that folder that di not disappear. Dont know what to do next. DOnt know if
this is a windows issue or some spyware, trojan, or worm. Also have not been
able to download SP2 updates only D/Ls 2 of the 8. Any info or advice
appreciated.

Thanks

I wish I could say they were in RA but they weren't. Its got me confused.
Some how My Music Folder has been corrupted. WMP will not even let me delte
files from it now.
