24.2 works well, but 24.3 bounded tramp got following error when open remote Linux system files or directories:
"byte-code: Couldn't find a proper `ls' command"
I open tramp trace and find that, all remote search path and file path are extend by something, adding a extra "c:" at the beginning. The results is that tramp can find neither command nor file I want to open.

Anyone know something about this? Thanks in advance.
Merging the answer by @AlanThird and the comment by @uscjeremy, here is what worked for me (GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2013-03-17 on MARVIN, Windows XP/SP3/32):
Byte compile tramp-sh.el
(adapt path accordingly):
(byte-compile-file "C:/Program Files (X86)/emacs/lisp/net/tramp-sh.el")
Exit Emacs.
Delete Tramp cache: ~/.emacs.d/tramp
Start Emacs.
See also bug report #14030 on gnu.org.
It seems this is a bug in tramp but you don't need to upgrade tramp, all you have to do is recompile tramp-sh.el on a Windows box. See the bug report here for more information.
Enter this on the scratch buffer:
(byte-compile-file "C:/Program Files/emacs/lisp/net/tramp-sh.el")
adjusting the path to match your install, then type Ctrl-Meta-x to recompile the file. If it complains about permissions you might need to restart emacs using the "run as administrator" option in Windows.
Once the file is recompiled type M-x tramp-cleanup-all-connections in order to reset the tramp connection cache. This will close any tramp connections you have open.
