How to avoid computerand mobile virus

AUTORUN.INF Viruses are virus
that uses the Autorun feature of
Windows to spread itself on
computers. This virus makes a
copy of the autorun.inf file to
the root or main directory of all
the drives on your PC, internal
and / or external disks, to make
the virus runs every time the
external disks like pen drives,
USB drives or even your
memory cards were inserted or
every time you double-click the
drives through the Windows
Explorer.

1. Disable the AUTORUN feature
of Windows by applying a
registry modification on the
Windows’ Registry Editor.
Go to Start-Run-gpedit.msc-local
computer policy-computer
configuration-administrative
templates-system-edit turn off
autoplay (disabled).

Or

Go to start-run-type regedit

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software
\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Policies\explorer
The Default Dword value is “ff ff
ff ff”
Change it the valu of “ff”
Or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM
\CurrentControlSet\Services
\Cdrom Double-click on Autorun
and you ’ll see a default value of
1. Change it to 0 (zero).
Restart your computer to apply
these changes.
(If a different message was seen,
such as “Registry Editing has
been disabled by your
administrator. ”, possibly your PC
is infected already by a virus
that prevents registry access.)

2.To create an AUTORUN.INF
folder on the root directories
(main directory usually
represented by backslash
symbol \ ) . You can do this via
Windows Explorer or Command
Prompt but I will recommend the
method via Command Prompt.
To run command prompt, click
Start then Run or press the key
combination: Winkey + R
Type CMD then press enter. This
will open the black and white
environment.

On the prompt, type MD C:
\AUTORUN.INF then press enter
key.
Repeat this procedure to other
hard drives, USB drives,
pendrives and memory sticks
(cards). Just replace the C letter
from the command with the
appropriate drive letter of each
storage device. In your mobile
phone, create a folder named
autorun.inf. in your memory
stick drive.
If this fails, maybe your
computer or your memory stick
is infected already by the virus.
The next step is to remove virus.
3. How to remove autorun.inf
manually.
In the command prompt, type
the ff.
ATTRIB -H -R -S C:\AUTORUN.INF
– unhides the hidden file
autorun.inf
DEL C:\AUTORUN.INF
Repeat this step to other drives
by replacing C:\ with other
letters

Avoid future infections in your
mobile phone memory stick/
card.
If you don ’t have PC, create an
empty folder named autorun.inf.
That ’s all! Why we do this? The
reason is to avoid future
infections. The autorun.inf virus
usually generates a file
autorun.inf .Having an
autorun.inf folder on the root
directory of your drives will
make virus programs unable to
create their own autorun.inf file.
Virus can ’t overwrite it because
it’s a folder & not a file.
