HELP!! Right click PROBLEM!!!

2 min read

This thread's last reply is from May 24, 2009, 3:10 PM UTC. Software, malware, and removal-tool advice below may be out of date — treat specific steps and download links with caution.

Whenever I click in any file/shortcut on system programs under explorer.exe (e.g. The desktop, Start Menu, Windows Explorer) it hangs up and I have to restart the process in taskmanager!
the last thing i remembered added in the context menu was a bat file in "send to" folder(not without my consent so not malware issue).
The bat file's function was to move files in a folder within the folder it was originally on.
ex.
D:/Folder/filename.jpg
I right click on it>send to>new folder.bat
new location
D:/Folder/filename/filename.jpg

but I found it useless so i went to 'send to' folder to delete it.

And now Right click stopped working!
I disabled all(except avast,winrar,and spybot) non windows context using shellextview.
But it still doesn't work!

I know it's not malware(that's why I posted it here instead of the HJT section).
could be in the registry.
