    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.



    and



    1. Go to Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del)
    2. in that click on Process Tab
    3. Delete only the svchost.exe of your user name
    4. type c:\heap41a in you address barof your explorer and you can trace this folder
    5. Now give a smile… you have done it….

    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
