Hello.

I have a Fujitsu external hard disk. When I plug it into my laptop (OS is Windows Vista Home Premium) it shows up in "Computer" but cannot be accessed when double-clicked. When double-clicked, message pops up saying "Application not found." However it can be accessed by right clicking and selecting "Open" or "Explore".

This is only a recent problem.

I have run a virus scan on my laptop and on the hard disk but nothing shows up. I am using Norton Internet Security.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
