Destroy virus from hard drive in 15 seconds

If some viruses are attacked especially a variant of autorun. U'll see an "Open with..." dialog when u try to open a drive. Here are the steps to delete it from ur hard drive.

Goto command prompt and goto the drive where u'll get the "Open with..." dialog.
To do this

Code:


step 1 : start -> run
step 2 : type cmd
step 3 : enter the drive name followed by a colon


type attrib, It'll list out the attributes of all the files in the drive(only files, not folders and files inside that folders) U'll see some of the files with attributes s h r

Type this code:

Code:


attrib -s -h -r *.*


The above line resets the attributes of all the files in the drive. Then delete the files which has s h r attributes set.

Code:


del <filename>.<extension>

e.g
del w.cmd
del autorun.inf


After removing the virus file from each drive Logoff ur PC and Logon again. This is a must. In somecases It may be optional. To be safe perform it.

NOTE: The files shown here are just an example. Original virus file may be of different name. The virus will affect any drive. I've just taken D: drive for illustration. THIS CODE SHOULD NOT BE USED IN "C:" DRIVE IF WINDOWS IS INSTALLED IN IT, AS THIS DRIVE CONTAINS SYSTEM FILES.

Wov It's cool trick . I like it so much and it's working frequently.

Thanks for update us.
