CD/DVD drive constantly Opening and closing
For three days now my cd/dvd drive has been opening and staying open and also opening and closing several times an hour. What is causing this and how can I fix it?

What Model PC? (and What Operating System?). Make sure it's not a meda player that is doing it. Close any and all media players and see if it stops.
Barring a defective drive (either the front panel open/close switch or an internal problem), it could be malware. Do a complete spyware scan with a program such as "MBAM" that has an up to date data file and also do a complete virus scan with up to date virus program and data file.
