That's MS-Dos command window u are seeing try restarting the computer and see if that helps.
what is the file name and extention? what size is the file? more often then not when it does that it has worked it has installed a mallicious program.....
if its a virus and he restarts he might not be able to boot
I say run a virus scan on it if you didn't already
/.02
dont worry the poor fella it is probably just a zip or and iso with an .exe extension.
We need more information, btw moved to softwareworld.

SpookyBlackBox.bat ?

there arent any viruses/ i scanned and im clean. One is a zip.exe and another is a iso.exe
When you see two extensions is eiather fake or a virus. ;)
.iso.exe is fine, just remove the .exe and burn as an image.
.zip.exe might be a self extracter but I wouldn't trust it. I thought this was in the blocked list anyway?
