yesterday i found a new file on my drive partition named 'MFC32DLL.dll.vbs' and an 'autorun.inf' that points to the previous file. these files are present in all the drive partition. the antivirus program and spyware remover programs don't detect these files but i think these files are some kind of malware. i tried to delete them but they reappear. can anyone help me with these files.....

Malware using autorun.inf files to launch are becoming increasingly common...
At this board we no longer do malware removal , so by far the best thing to do is post a HijackThis log (http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/) at one of the specialized boards so that the experts can have a look at what's running.
Here are two excellent ones that aren't quite as busy as the "big names": http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/index.php?

I sure looks like a bad file, no normal software writer gives a file a double extension.
Try uploading it to jotti and see what it reports

The vbs file may even not be detected as malware itself. But open it in Notepad and post the contents here. It ought to give a clue as to what it does.
