    Autorun.inf open error in flash drive

    open My Computer, and right click on "explore" to get your files. Then install a good anti-virus program, such as Avast! Anti-virus (avast.com) and clean off your (possibly) infected hard drive and computer.

    When i try to open any drive or any other application a dialog box 'open with' appears why this happens ,how do i solve this problem?

    This is problem with registry, there is some sort of corrupt data in your registry which can be cleaned by registry repair.

    By the way you can open your drive by using explorer drop down address bar.
