This virus usually spreads from USB Pen drives/flash drives/mass storage devices.

Here is the cure.

1. Click Start -> Run.
2. Type RegEdit in the Open text box, then press ENTER.
3. In the Registry Editor, locate and click the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\CDRom

1. Modify the value of the Autorun to 0 (zero) so that CD-ROMs and Audio CDs do not run and start automatically when inserted.
2. Next navigate to the following registry subkey:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

1. Modify the value of the NoDriveTypeAutoRun entry to 0xb5 value to turn off the AutoRun feature for CD-ROMs by right-click NoDriveTypeAutoRun and then click Modify to type B5 in the Value data box. Select Hexadecimal, and then click OK.
2. Quit Registry Editor.
3. Restart your computer.

I'm pretty much sure that it isn't a Virus but a Spyware/Adware
Use
CounterSpy/ Spysweeper/ Spyware Doctor/ Ad-aware SE

Antivirus : Norton (slows down the system) but I use Kaspersky

 

Nice error...
however, i use Zonal Alarm...

 

Shit Sumitpedia rocks

hahaha, I hope it works for you.

 

I am using AVAST & Bit defender. Both working good on my system

 

I use AVG because its free.

 

I had AVG , but its not always free i guess.

 

Mcafee Rocks

 

Not sure which one I like

 

I am using Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0

 

I like to use the grey AVG oh wait thats just the one that is not upto date cause it cant atuo update with out slowing my whole pc down!

 

I use Norten 360 and use Reg Mech by PC tools Resistance is futile!

 

Best for me is ZONEALARM

 

I use zone alarm and kapersky.

 

Hey ZoneAlaram is a Firewall Not a Anit Virus. Well But I am Using AVG Anti Virus & SAVG Anti Spywares with Zone Alaram. And its really Protecting my Computer...

 

I've been using AVG for a while and I really like it.
