How to remove new folder exe or regsvr exe or autorun inf virus

    1. Last week I came across a virus with new folder.exe and regsrv.exe and autorun.inf. I was searching for suitable solution for autorun.inf but I didnt get any proper solution for long time but Today I found a USB virus removal tool which is quit effective. This will help to remove above said virus .Click here to find the Download
    2. Here is one more method I am going to tell you this is manual process. Follow this process if you can't remove using above tool. In most of the case this virus will disable regedit and task manager.  I am also going to tell you how to enable REGEDIT and TASKMANGER . To enable regedit just Click Start, Run and type this command HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableRegistryTools /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f    To enable task manager Click Start, Run and type this command REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
      1. Search for autorun.inf file. It is a read only file so you will have to change it to normal by right clicking the file , selecting the properties and un-check the read only option
      2. Open the file in notepad and delete everything and save the file.
      3. Now change the file status back to read only mode so that the virus could not get access again.
      4. Autorun
      5. Click start->run and type msconfig and click ok
      6. Go to startup tab look for regsvr and uncheck the option click OK.
      7. Click on Exit without Restart, cause there are still few things we need to do before we can restart the PC.

Microsoft releases free anti-virus

Hoping to dispel fears about the vulnerability of Windows to viruses and other malware, Microsoft released a trial version of a n

The software is designed to replace the Windows Defender tool that Microsoft released in 2007, but which was widely derided as being inadequate to protect computers from the constant and ever-evolving threats posed by hackers.

Microsoft has been widely criticised for failing to include free and effective security software in its Windows operating systems, which are targeted far more intensely by malicious software than the rival Linux and Apple systems.

The world's largest software company said that Microsoft Security Essentials is available to the first 75,000 subscribers in the US, Israel, Brazil and China. The software is meant to run in the background, without constantly bombarding users with security alerts or using a lot of system resources.

A full version of the software is expected to become available in September.
