re: Pen drive - Virus


Ravmon.exe is a virus comes from Pen Drive & copy itself in all hard disk partitions with autorun.inf file. When we double click on a drive to open it, this reads autorun.inf file & run the Ravmon.exe virus. To remove this virus you should have a strong Antivirus software. You need not to completely scan your system. Just search for Ravmon.exe in Windows Search and select all the displayed result and right click to choose your antivirus software to scan and remove from your system. Now search for autorun.inf file that comes with Ravmon.exe. This time select only autorun.inf files attached to your drive i.e. C:\autorun.inf, D:\autorun.inf, E:\autorun.inf, F:\autorun.inf and delete. Now your system is free from Ravmon.exe virus. But before using your infected Pen Drive, you have to take some steps to stop Pen Drive Viruses in future.

Copy the following text from "Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00" and paste it to Notepad and save the file with .reg extention and double click the file and select yes option to register.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoDriveTypeAutoRun"=dword:00000085

"newfolder.exe"=""

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer\DisallowRun]

"4"="run.wsh"
"5"="VirusRemoval.vbs"

copy end before this

Reboot the system. Now insert your Pen Drive and format it.

re: Pen drive - Virus


In my pendrive, a virus named, " New Folder.exe is shown. On deleting it is not removed. On deleting it goes, but immediately copied. On opening the folder (New Folder.exe), it shows all the files in " My document" folder of my computer. I tried to remove the virus file with Adaware, trend micro, but no fruitful use. Pl Guide.

re: Pen drive - Virus


Hello,

Download Unlocker and install it. Open your pendrive and right click [New folder.exe] to see if there are some locking handles found. If locking handles are found select "kill process" option for all locking handles. Then under Actions menu, try choosing option "delete". That may or may not help depending upon the exact nature of virus. See image below for more help:




If this deosnot helps, you will need booting into FreeDOS or Linux to delete [New Folder.exe].

If unlocker doesnot helps, tell me......then we will try from Freedos or Linux.


H0pe th!s helps............

re: Pen drive - Virus


Will that actually clean the files or just delete them? Because if it just deletes them, you'd better use a standard anti-virus program (which can remove much more than 20 viruses). And sometimes files like autorun.ini can be quite useful.

Hi,

You can protect your pen drive from autorun type viruses by creating a folder named autorun.inf in the root folder. You can find more detailed instructions at Solo Antivirus site link

Nice trick, I'll have to remember that one! :-) Of course, it should be read-only.
