Folder of documents completely empty after emptying the Recycle Bin. Running Windows Vista Edition Home Premium.

I uploaded several photos from a third party site yesterday. In this process, I make several files which I then recycle once the download is complete. Because I'm uploading about 6 months worth of photos, I decided it would be best to empty the trash when I finished and did. Today, I went to access a Word document, and ALL my files are missing from the Documents folder - it is completely empty. When I try to look for one of the files that I know was in the file, I get a message that says "the point _ that this shortcut refers has been changed or moved, and this shortcut no longer works correctly. You really want to remove this shortcut? "In the research forums, I've seen where this can happen after a trojan/virus. I met said before virus on my laptop, so I know what it looks like at and. I have experienced this on my desk that I currently have the problem with. I ran a full scan, just to be on the right side and found nothing. Any suggestions?
