Drive listed twice - virus? Marek Kalisz 11-10-2006

Recently I discovered that drive D:\ (logical, on same HD that C:\) is
listed twice in Explorer. Both have same directory/file trees except - one
Properties show right size/free space, other Properties show size "0"(zero).
It might have also something to do with a strange file (?) "Dd2" that I
wasn't able to neither find using Search, nor delete from Recycle Bin.
Recycle Bin showed to delete "Windows" but when I clicked to delete info
said that can't delete "Dd2".
Any ideas what might be going on?

No, it is not malware but a bug in your OS.
