Autorun.inf virus actually spread mainly from portable media such as USB drives, Memory Cards etc. If you are a victim of this virus then you may experience following problems:
[1] You can’t enable “Show Hidden Files and Folders”
[2] Task Manager will be disabled and you can’t open it.
[3] Autorun.inf can enable more viruses when portable devices are used.
[4] Access to Registry Editor will be locked.
[5] It can open the drives in new window each time when you try to open them.
When an infected device is infected with a malware and an ‘autorun.inf’ file is dropped, the shell menu is normally modified to execute the malware whenever the unsuspecting user double-clicks the infected drive. Actually Autorun.inf changes few entries on the registry of your system, and you can’t restore those manually as access to the Registry Editor already disabled by this virus.
So, it’s a real problem if you are affected with this virus. Normally, popular antivirus software often fails to detect and remove Autorun.inf completely. To get rid of this, you can try a nice FREE utility called AutorunEater. It’s a very fast and easy to use tool and helps you to remove Autorun.inf and restore all registry changes.
Autorun Eater will remove any suspicious ‘autorun.inf’ files even before the user attempts to access the drive.

One Important Point I would like to tell you that some antivirus and antispyware programs may show ‘false positive‘ behaviour which means they can flag Autorun Eater as being infected/malware, although the application is perfectly safe and does not pose a threat to your system. If you already have other antivirus or anti-malware installed then they can detect AutorunEater as virus, just ignore this. Also you can disable and exit all antivirus program installed on your system before running AutorunEater.
