[Solved] Recycler virus (unremovable)

    One more thing, about the external drive (backup 300GB) and the Flash Disinfecter.
    How do I clean it or ensure it is totally clean like the computer?, ....before removing OTL.

    Scan it with your AV program.

    In the opening post of this thread, I mentioned that Avira Free Edition (updated) doesn't detect this virus. Now if I connect my ext HD, and the virus gets back into action, I'll be back to square one. I'm scared to connect the ext HD to my computer. With great trepidation, I'll give it a try.

    I get a java error on starting the computer, "jusched.exe has encountered a prolem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience".

    Disable jusched.exe as a startup: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/what-is-juschedexe-and-why-is-it-running/

    As for connecting external drive, install this on your computer.
    It'll prevent any external file to self-execute.
    Download, and run Flash Disinfector, and save it to your desktop (Windows Vista and Windows 7 users, scroll down)

    *Please disable any AV / ScriptBlockers as they might detect Flash Disinfector to be malicious and block it. Hence, the failure in executing. You can enable them back after the cleaning process*

    • Double-click Flash_Disinfector.exe to run it and follow any prompts that may appear.
    • The utility may ask you to insert your flash drive and/or other removable drives. Please do so and allow the utility to clean up those drives as well.
    • Hold down the Shift key when inserting the drive until Windows detects it to keep autorun.inf from executing if it is present.
    • Wait until it has finished scanning and then exit the program.
    • Reboot your computer when done.
    Note: As part of its routine, Flash_Disinfector will create a hidden folder named autorun.inf in each partition and every USB drive that was plugged in when you ran it. Do not delete this folder...it will help protect your drives from future infection by keeping the autorun file from being installed on the root drive and running other malicious files.

    Windows Vista and Windows 7 users
    Flash Disinfector is not compatible with the above Windows version.
    Please, use Panda USB Vaccine, or BitDefender’s USB Immunizer

    After Flash Disinfector treatment as specified, when I connect the external drive from time to time, repeatedly get this error message in a Pop up window:-

    Windows - No Disk (Title Bar)

    [ICON] Exception Processing Message c0000013 Paramaters 756bf7c 4 756bf7c 756bf7c
    (The ICON is a red circle with a thick white "x" inside)

    (three buttons) Cancel Try Again Continue.

    Did it. Scanned ext HD with MBAM instead of Avira and found 44 infections.

    When we delete the detected infections, are the infections removed or the entire file deleted. If the entire file is deleted, then will the software run properly (if some imp exe file is deleted)?

    Sometimes even if we put a certain file in the "ignore" list the antivirus keeps on informing that there is suspected infection in so and so file. What do we do then?

    As for the first issue I suggest you start new topic in Windows\hardware forum.

    Entire file is put to a vault or deleted if you opt to do so.

    In that case you must reinstall program.

    It ignores for now but not for the future.

    This is slightly off the topic, but, how do you take the snapshots of dialouge boxes? I tried
    it with a digital camera, but, din't come out well. It is much easier to post a picture, than
    describe the entire dialouge box (like the error message).
