Delete Autorun.inf Virus by Winrar

This problem is common one that occurs in every one PC. In the previous month one of my friend was suffering by this thing. So I decide to write an article to all my readers on how to save yourself from this virus.

How This Virus Work:: This virus corrupted almost all drives from on your hard disk. And when you double click on any drive it opened in new windows. In some cases, when your drive is infected with this Autorun.inf virus, you won’t be able to access the drive completely. You have to browse the drive by exploring it i.e; Ctrl+E keys from the keyboard.


Now here is the various steps that you have to follow to get rid from this problem::

Step 1: First you have to disable CD/DVDS or USB Autorun in windows.

Step 2: Open Winrar.exe  (Start–>All Programs–>WinRar–>WinRar.exe)

Step 3: Now Browse to any drive that is infected with Autorun.inf virus using winrar explorer.

Step4: Here you will see all the hidden files under winrar for that particular drive.

Step 5: Look for the file Autorun.inf and open it using notepad.

Step 6: In that Autorun file, some .EXE file will be mentioned that will be executed along with the autorun file. This exe file is the main culprit.

Step 7: Note the .exe file mentioned in the Autorun.inf file. Close this Autorun.inf file.

Step 8: Now look for that .Exe file in the drive (Ex: c:/), Delete that .exe file along with Autorun.inf

Step 9: Restart your operating system. Now your system is free with Autorun.inf Virus.

Note: Repeat the same process if your USB or Pendrives are infected with Autorun.inf virus.

5 THINGS TO DO WHEN YOU ARE HIT BY A FACEBOOK SPAM

Now facebook is one of the most popular social networking web site. Millions of users using facebook on daily bases to connect with friends. Now in this post of facebook tricks I am going to share some trick to do when you hit by a facebook SPAM.

1. Report as spam

This is the first precautionary step. Immideatley report the spam to facebook( dont click on delete). Reporting as spam automatically hides the link from your feed so dont take the risk of deleting it.

2. Disable the installed plugin

The recent spam asks you to install a missing plugin. So in case you have installed it, act fast to remove it. If you are using firefox then go to Firefox > Add-ons > Extensions . Here you will find the malicious plugin. Click on Remove to get rid of it.
For Crome users, click on the small Wrench(Rinch) icon at the right corner of the browser, then click on options and move to Extensions. Disable and remove the plugin from there.

3. Switch to Https

Immideately switch to https version of facebook if you still haven't. This will prevent any kind of session hijacking and will prevent the http cookies created by the spam in your system to re-post the link on the profile.

4. Clear Cookies, Browsing history and Browser cache

The spam creates lots of fake facebook http cookies on your system which can re-post the spam links on your profile and can redirect you to other links as well. So it is highly recommended that you delete all the browser cookies. Clearing history can also help in cases where you may again accidently click the link.
You can go to Browser options to clear the cookies, history etc.

5. Change the password

Last but not the least. Change the facebook password. Your facebook account is precious to you so why to take the risk. So change your password after some time period.

Enjoy..!!!
