VIRUSES AND SAFELY REMOVAL PROBLEM IN THE PEN DRIVE : HOW TO SOLVE IT

Virus in the removal media ,mostly in the pen drive is a common problem as becoz we use it to transfer data between defferent computers.Mostly good antivirus are able to scan and remove all virus/Trojan/worm from it,but still can't remove some malwares due to many reasons say the virus run in the background or it associates or attach itself to some system files.

Even after formatting also u will find that some malware will still remain as it is in your pen drive...this is really amazing but it is possible as the malicious code attached itself to some system files of the pen drive itself.Those virus codes are specifically named as DNA.
Those u may have to remove manually say delete manually.That's what i am giving some methods how to remove it........Lipak





--------------------
1.Connect your pendrive.

2.Go to START ,RUN,type cmd.

3.Check the drive letter of your pendrive(eg.F:).

4.In the command prompt ,type f: and press enter to go into the pen drive's location.

5 .Once u moved to the required drive Type dir /w/o/a/p press enter to see each and every files of your pen drive.

6.See for the files:(or any other virus)

Explorer.exe

Autorun.inf

autorun.exe

NewFolder.exe

regsvr.exe

astry.au3

reg32.exe

Bha.vbs

Iexplore.vbs

Info.exe

New_Folder.exe

Ravmon.exe

Ravon.exe

MntDrCore.exe


RVHost.exe


or any other folder with extension .exe.


7.If you find any of the above files,run the command "attrib -h -r -s -a *.*" at the command prompt and press enter to change the attributes of those files.

8.Delete each file one by one using del filename (eg.del autorun.inf).

9.Finally,scan your pendrive with a good antivirus(eg.McAfee ,Kaspersky).



Some times u often find that u want do safely removal for the pen drive ,but it will not, giving a message that the generic volume is in use ,so it can't be removed.It may be possibvle that u have manually run some programs or files from it and even after closing that program, it is running in the background i.e in the process which u can easily identify seeing all the procees running in the task manager and end it manually.

Often this may be due to some virus.In this case u will not be able to identify and end the required process to do safely removal. For this u may use a software Unlocker ( which i use and find it useful) to identiufy the process running from pen drive and u will able to kill it.So u can do safely removal.Finally i will suggest to take atmost care while using pen drive of others or which was attached to some publicly used computer say in cafe or Computer Center (of our collg)............................Lipak
