Exclamation Short cuts for Drives in "My Computer" launch "Find Files and Folders" Window

Got an NT machine and when I go into the "My Computer" short cut from desktop and try to open a drive (A:\, C:\), it
launches the "Find Files and Folders" window.

Does not do this through explorer. Anybody got a fix for this?

"Open" is first on drop down menu, everything in the menu does as it is supposed to.

try this
go to Folder Options.
On the File Types tab, click Drive, and then click Edit.
If "Find" is in bold, it is the default action. If it is not in bold, click Find and then Set Default.
Click Set Default to remove the default (using the Set Default command on the default action removes the default). Click Apply.
