Flash Drive Disinfector
Information and Download Flash_Disinfector.exe by sUBs from >here< and save it to your desktop.

• 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 including your mobile phone. Please do so and allow the utility to clean up those drives as well.
• Wait until it has finished scanning and then exit the program.
• Reboot your computer when done.

Note: Flash_Disinfector will create a hidden folder named autorun.inf in each partition and every USB drive plugged in when you ran it. Don't delete this folder...it will help protect your drives from future infection.

when i save it and run the flashdisinfector, a diagram shown as below:-

if you have a flash drive, please plug it in the machine, the screen will go black for a while. don't get alarmed, this is normal.
click ok to begin disinfection

so i just press ok.

then the diagram just show "ok"

is the program running already? the result came out very fast, not so long have to wait.

is this function same as USBvaccine software?

[DavidR]

When you have your USB plugged in you need to run the again, when complete check it using Explorer and there should be a hidden folder created as in the Blue text in my previous post.

I have never heard of or used USBvaccine before so I can't say.

yes, it's the same. a user-friendlyer approach is the utility from Panda: http://research.pandasecurity.com/archive/Panda-USB-and-AutoRun-Vaccine.aspx

Doesn't USBvaccinate replaces the autorun.inf file from the USB drivers with a new one?

[dansorin]

yes, it should replace it.

[Lisandro]

[wilson79]

sorry, maybe i'm not familiar with this software, so i dun understand what your meaning.

it you did what DavidR explained in his first post, then you are ok. the Panda utility is the same as Flash_Disinfector but with a friendly interface.
