Autorun.inf/Setup.exe

Hi Guys

Seems I've caught a dose of this blasted thing. Don't let your sister's kids near your computer!

Anyway, I've been through the processes in the stickies and I'm hoping I've got rid of the offending articles, or replaced them with empty files of the same names. My thinking is that maybe the nasties won't be recreated if there's already something there. Could be wrong though...

I've attached the output from EWIDO and HJT. I'd be grateful if somone could have a look at them for me.

Thanks.

Hi Howard, many thanks for the quick response!

OK, I've been through your instructions. Things seem OK, but I haven't removed the dummy Autorun.inf/Setup.exe files I put in.

The only apparent problem at this stage is that every time I reboot, Norton AV starts up with Autoprotect disabled. I reset it in the config, but it's disabled again at next reboot.

I've attached HJT logfiles from immediately after boot up (hijackthislog2) and also after enabling NAV Autoprotect.

Suggestions most welcome!
 
Your HJT log is clean.

The best advice I can give as regards your Norton problem, is get rid of it. It`s buggy as hell and consumes large ammounts of system resources.

You system will run a lot better without it.

There are plenty of alternatives out there, paid and free.

The free AVG antivirus programme and either the free Zonealarm or Kerio firewall programmes are very good. You can get them HERE, HERE and HERE.

If you have any further virus/spyware problems, please post in this thread.

Regards Howard :)
