A friend of mine bought a pen drive and plugged into my computer,
opened up 'my computer' and 'explore'd the removable drive. There i found the files: 'Funny UST scandle.avi.exe', "xmss.exe' and 'autoruns.inf'. Suddenly the computer started acting abnormally, Folders closeing automatically and task manager not working.

I opened up 'Process explorer' and killed xmss.exe from there. Opened 'autoruns' and unchecked xmss.exe and restarted.
But after the restart, the real disaster happened. As soon as i log in(autologon) i am automatically logged out without getting any chance to do something.

I need to get my windows working again. What can i do here? Help!!!

Did you try booting in safe mode. If not try and run your antivirus software. Also try using vcleaner if you can log in safe mode.

I would say that AVG is the worst AntiVirus in the world.:D
It has high false rates and doesn't detect simple viruses.

If Vaibhva, you use AVG, then I would say to ditch it and start using NOD32 or Kaspersky. You'll definitely come to know the difference.........:mrgreen:

AVG in my school was a real hell. It didn't even detect common viruses like Newfolder.exe, Brontok. And as soon as you inserted your pen drive, it got infected.
If you really want to use a FREE antivirus, then go for Avast instead. But it is also not that good if you compare it with NOD32.
