Windows XP: Folder Options Gone ?

Expand Post »
As the title says, I can't seem to find the 'folder options' in File - Tools on my Windows Explorer anymore. I'm not sure when exactly it started and what caused it to disappear.

Also since I had that problem, I realised that an additional 'Data.exe' file appears in my removable disk whenever I plug it in and out after usage. When I double-clicked the exe, it appeared to be a shortcut to 'My Documents'. Deleting it won't work as it will reappear soon after.

I have scanned with my antivirus (latest update), adware, spyware programs but no virus was found.
Please advise.
