Thanks for your input Dave. I will do as suggested and report back.
In the meantime the file MS32DLL.dll.vbs has been located on the computer
which seems to suggest a trojan. From what little knowledge that the 'net
has given up, it can stop access to disc drives by double clicking but not
using the 'explore' option and can also prevent users accessing the registry
(regedit command). At this stage there is one physical hard drive we can not
access but that may be caused by another problem.
