Hi,
by saying that you deleted the virus, i guess that you deleted it by simply clicking on it.
if so it will appear again!
you be able to delete it correctly, you need an anti-virus!
you may download it

First run your system in safe mode, then go to your my computer properties and enable the system restore function.
then restart your computer and run in command prompt mode. in the command mode type the following.
ATTRIB Autorun.inf -H -S -R.
if the file is found in the Drive then give.
DEL Autorun.inf.
<similarly you can do it for all drives. but you have to restart your system for each drive.>

Hi, i think merely removing the autorun.inf would not resolve your issue. Autorun.inf files come with an associated file which could be the real virus. Anyway, you could open with notepad the autorun.inf file to check exactly what file that autorun.inf is actually running.

Or if you use command prompt, locate the location of the autorun.inf. Then rename it first, say, autorun.txt and read it.

To remove the autorun.inf, I posted a reply containing a link for an application I use in removing it.

This is NOT a malware object, it's simply a process that enables compiled programs, CD's and DVD's to run automatically within various hardware storage devices used by the operating system. Without AUTORUN your games and movies would not work without you manually clicking the drive icon that denotes the type of software loaded.

Companies like Trend Micro offer an online scan which "reveals" two infections (a common ploy to help the purchasing of anti-malware software) Otorun2 and MEMWATCHER are instances of already installed programs.

I found all this out during an investigation while running the trend micro online scan in order to swap some files from a local disk to an external device. These files and references to them do not even exist in local files, only one instance of each was found in temp files labelled under trend micro, a leftover from the active x control required to run the scan in the first place!

Don't believe the hype, I have Symantec Corporate client anti-virus, Spybot Search and Destroy, Sygate Personal Firewall Pro and Ad-Aware and have NEVER had an infection that I couldn't completely extinguish within the hour over the period of 6 years.

It's just marketing nonsense so don't worry but DO be protected with the RIGHT software :)

Very good genius... unfortunately what everyone else except u is talking about is when malware edits that file to run itself.

I have been dealing with USB viruses for a year or so now (on XP systems) and there is a Hidden Files Viewer utility available at www.SeaStarDevelopment.Bravehost.com if anybody would like to try it.

Hi,

I would ask you to try and delete the viruses(autorun.inf) using cmd, try to use the commands to delete the viruses

if that doesn't work then you'll have download a third party application called autorun eater.exe.It really did great thing for me.

Something else is that after autrun eater detects an autorun it will tend to delete if it doesnt succed then you will have do download unlocker.exe which will unload any thread that is locking the autorun from being deleted.

Have a nice day and Enjoy!!!!!!!

Thank you
