My documents, pictures and saved web pages change from their normal file size
to an unusable 0KB when I open Windows Explorer. Norton finds no virus.
Any ideas would be great. Thanks.

Hi:

If your anti-virus is updated and finds nothing maybe it's
a trojan, not a virus as anti-virus software do not get all
trojans... install the following programs, hope that will
solve your problem.
