Hallo, I'm experiencing a very wierd virus that is creating a RECYCLER FOLDER on the root directory of my Pc, This recycler folder is having similar icon like that of recycle bin and when i open it, has a info.exe and desktop.ini. When i delete it, disappear for a while and then pop-up again now with autorun.inf file. Any help i will appreciate. Cyrus
INFO.exe is a virus. It overrides the default action for the drive. Instead of opening the drive, it will execute the virus. The virus places itself in the startup folder and tries to infect more drives. If you see ctfmon.exe under the Task Manager then you probably have the virus. One ctfmon.exe is legit, the other is the virus. It doesn't seem to be dangerous, it only seems to want to spread. This script should get rid of it, but use it at your own risk. Just save this into a batch file (something.bat) and run it on the root (I:\) of the drive that is infected. @echo off attrib -r -s -h *.* del autorun.inf cd Recycled attrib -r -s -h *.* del INFO2 del desktop.ini del ctfmon.exe cd Recycled attrib -r -s -h *.* del ctfmon.exe cd .. rmdir Recycled cd .. attrib -r -s -h Recycled rmdir Recycled Best regards, Brian Harper
