BleepingComputer.com: Am I in danger? Combofix folder now on C drive???

I stupidly clicked on combofix before I needed to, and without guidance, to remove a rootkit or the likes. I am up and running now, but I noticed something strange on my hardrive. A new folder called combofix. The ComboFix folder has the same icon as "My Computer" and when I click on it, I am routed to My Computer showing all the drives, but the address bar says C:\ComboFix. Is this going to affect anything, other than my worrisome mind?

What you describe is a working folder for ComboFix which was created when there was a failed or interrupted run of ComboFix.

Download a fresh copy of ComboFix and save it to your Desktop.

Click > Run... and type in the run dialog box: ComboFix /Uninstall

• Press OK.
  -- Vista/Windows 7 users refer to these instructions: How to Enable Run Command in Windows 7 or Vista
  
• If you encounter any problems using the switch from the Run dialog box, just rename ComboFix.exe to Uninstall.exe, then double-click on it to remove.
  
• This will delete ComboFix's related folders/files, reset the clock settings, hide file extensions/system files, clear the System Restore cache and create a new Restore point.

Afterwards, please do NOT run ComboFix again unless asked to by a member of the Malware Removal Team.
Why? Please read the pinned topic ComboFix usage, Questions, Help? - Look here.
