Well from your description it sounds like you are running either Windows
NT 4 or Windows 2000. If this is the case you don't need to do
anything. This is normal behavior on both OS's, assuming the shares are
Driveletter$ so like "C$", otherwise you have one or more of the
following on your computer a virus, spyware, malware, or a rootkit. The
shares such as "C$" are used for administrative purposes, they cannot be
browsed to, & you need full administrative rights to even use them.

If your question is worth asking, it's worth posting.
If it’s not worth posting you should have done a search on
http://www.google.com/ http://www.google.com/grphp?hl=en&tab=wg&q= or
http://news.google.com/froogle?hl=en&tab=nf&ned=us&q= before wasting our
time.
If I sound hostile or arrogant you need to read the following before
posting a question "How To Ask Questions The Smart Way" at
http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html (The site I've linked
to just has this article I think people should read before posting a
technical question.)
