Answer 1

I will share this solution from a contact of mine.

You can boot up your PC in safe mode command prompt

[press F8 during bootup]

unhide the autorun.inf

c:\attrib -r -s -h autorun.inf

rename it the autorun.inf to txt

c:\ren autorun.inf to autorun.txt

create a FOLDER call autorun.inf to prevent re-infection

c:\mkdir autorun.inf

find out the virus file name

c:\type autorun.txt

It may show something like this

[AutoRun]

open=virusname.exe

shellexecute=virusname.exe

shell\Auto\command=virusname.exe

unhide the virus

c:\attrib -r -s -h virusname.exe

remove the virus

c:\del virusname.exe

del the autorun.txt

c:\del autorun.txt

Keep the autorun.inf folder to prevent future infection

Do the same thing to your flash drive.
