Hi to all,
Now a days we are facing the problem of virus.
especially in the USB.Because the use of USB is very high.
One of the ways by which a virus can infect your PC is through USB/Pen drives.
Common viruses such as ’Ravmon’ , ‘New Folder.exe’, ‘Orkut is banned’ etc are spreading through USB drives.Also most of the anti virus programs are unable
to fix it.
There is one way to do this.
When you insert the USB Donot open the window 'Open window to view files'
Instead you can take command prompt by typing 'cmd' in Run.
And take ur removable drive letter
f:
then dir /w/a
This will display a list of the files in the pen drive. Check whether the following files are there or not
Autorun.inf
Ravmon.exe
New Folder.exe
svchost.exe
Heap41a
or any other exe file which may be suspicious
If any one of the files are there.....
Probably your USB was infected.
In command prompt type attrib -r -a -s -h *.* and press enter. This will remove the Read Only, Archive, System and hidden file attribute from all the files. Now just delete the files using the command del filename. example del Ravmon.exe. Delete all the files that are suspicious. To be on a safer side, just scan the USB drive with an anti virus program to check whether it is free of virus or not. Now remove the drive and plug it again. In most of the cases, the real culprit turns out to be the “Autorun.inf” file which mostly gets executed when someone clicks Ok in the dialog window which appears above. Thus the infections can spread
I think this will help to all.
Thanking you,
RANIPRIYA

we can remove this virus easily,
open a new notepad file, save it in the name "Autorun" and the extension as ".inf". copy this to flash drive so that this file will replace the actual virus file and also it will block the forthcoming Autorun.inf virus.
How smart i'm killing the virus :-)

yeah i usually use the method is go to command prompt and type the USB drive path and do this -
attrib "file name" -s -h -r and then after wards
del "file name"
and thus you may do and the virus is removed.
simple and good method
