Its been a long time and I've reinstalled my OS. I need to work with my computer everyday and don't have time for all that. So 'simply' reinstalled. But its better still to keep knowledge.
Can somebody give out tuts on how to make "autorun.inf" completely disabled for all drives? That would be useful.

1) Go to Folder Options. Now go to the View tab.
2) Click on 'Show Hidden Files and Folders' and also uncheck 'Hide protected Hidden Files'
3) Now go to each drive and delete 'autron.inf' files......

Or you can do this........

Copy the following to a Notepad file and save it as FixAutorun.bat
@echo off
del "c:\windows\autorun.inf" /f/a
del "C:\autorun.inf" /f/a
del "D:\autorun.inf" /f /a
del "E:\autorun.inf" /f/a
del "F:\autorun.inf" /f/a
del "G:\autorun.inf" /f/a
@echo Now Restart PC in Normal Mode!
pause
exit
And then RUN it.........

I was looking for a hacking solution. Forcing system to limit "autorun.inf" functionality so that they do not take over context ( right mouse click) menu like 'open', 'explore' and add any other menu item and make them default.
So that 'autoruns' viruses doesn't get a chance to infect the system even accidentally.

In the zone
^^^ Just go to Start -> Run

In the run dialog box, just enter the following code:

REG add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer /v NoDriveTypeAutoRun /t REG_DWORD /d 255 /f

Note: This will turn off autoplay on all drives.

Right off the assembly line
I have bartpee autoboot cd ,thise cd have own operating. first to select boot from cd-rom in bios then run this cd you will see the winxp are started, then you go in each drive and remove System Volume Information and autorun.inf or remove virus file, then remove your cd and restart your pc

Try Logging into the SAFE MODE and if the task manager opens,then locate the mentioned files from the process explorer and delete them if they exist. Then navigate to WINDOWS\prefetch\ and check whether the said files exist or not. If they do,then delete them and restart your computer..
If this does not works(And even if it works), try installing an antivirus and a anti-spyware program and do a system scan. I would have preferred AVAST and SPYBOT-Search and Destroy..
Gud luck

Hey Hey!!! Didn't look at the previous entry... But had a nice tym posting it..........lol
