There is a much simple way to remove the Autorun.inf file. Genreally when you re
fresh the windows explorer view a bounded virus process recreates this file. Thi
s file is attached to many events of windows explorer including OPEN, REFRESH, e
tc. Simple stept to remove the virus activation:
You must close opened explorer windows.
1. open up a command prompt (i.e. cmd.exe) >> to load it go to Run, type cmd, en
ter.
2. Now to remove virus's attributes (in order to delete it type following line b
y line and execute them pressing enter.
e.g.
F:\
F:\attrib -s -r -h *.* If there are any malicious EXE files those are now visibl
e so if unnecessary delete them too.
F:\del autorun.inf
3. After finishing above, quickly remove the pen as soon as posible (just after
executing del command).
4. Now your pen is without virus activation config. file. Now you can safely del
ete unnecessary EXE files on it.

To get rid of Autorun.inf related viruses do the following in all of your remova
ble and local drives.
if autorun.inf already exists then,
open cmd (command prompt) and change the directory to the root of (infected) dri
ve,
i.e C:\ has autorun.inf
C:\>del /a:rhs c:\autorun.inf | md c:\autorun.inf
this will remove autorun.inf file and will create autorun.inf directory which wi
ll prohibit viruses from creating autorun.inf files in same drive.
repeat the process for all drives.
you can also create files named Recycle, Recycler, Restore, System etc in all dr
ive to prohibit creation of folders having these names (thoese folders are creat
ed by viruses to complete their process in every drive)
and you can also create directories of same name that of virus file i.e fbak.exe
, fix.exe, sscvihhost.exe, system.exe, etc
to fix the "open with" on c: - do the following steps. That work for me.
1. Open Start>>Run and type cmd and press enter. This will open a command prompt
window. On this command prompt window type the following steps.
2. type cd\
3. type attrib -r -h -s autorun.inf
4. type del autorun.inf
5. now type d: and press enter for d: drive partition. Now repeat steps 3 and 4.
Similarly repeat step 5 for all your hard disk partition.
Restart your system and your trouble will be fixed.
