What is more, the trojans may drastically slow the performance of your computer. Read below how to remove them and any associated malware from your computer for free.

Step1: Remove malicious autorun.inf files from all your drives, include any usb/flash drives.

1. Manually:

  • Reboot your PC in Safe mode.

    1. Restart your computer
    2. After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8.
    3. Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
    4. Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

  • Click Start -> Run.
  • In the type box enter cmd and press Enter.
  • In the command console type del /a:h /f c:\autorun.*
  • Repeat previous step to all drives, make replacing “c” with the appropriate drive letter.

2. Automatically.

  • Download Flash_Disinfector by sUBs 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 remove any autorun.inf files, 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.

Step 2: Remove autorun.inf trojan from the windows registry.

Download and install HijackThis.
Run HijackThis, click Do a system scan only button.
Put a checkmark next to the following items (if exists):

F2 – REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe csrcs.exe
O4 – HKLM\..\Run: [SystemDrive] c:\windows\system32\SVCH0ST.EXE
O4 – HKCU\..\Run: [avp] C:\WINDOWS\system32\avp.exe

O4 – HKCU\..\Run: [jvsoft] C:\WINDOWS\system32\j3ewro.exe
O4 – HKCU\..\Run: [ckvo] c:\windows\system32\ckvo.exe
O4 – HKLM\..\Run: [winconfig] C:\WINDOWS\winconfig.dll.vbs
O4 – HKLM\..\Policies\Explorer\Run: [csrcs] C:\WINDOWS\system32\csrcs.exe

    Hey I Picked Up a Trojan, My pc had to restart so i did so, and when i turned it on, it kept restarting itself everytime from a autorun, i managed to open command prompt when starting and disable the autorun, which was using cli.exe, i deleted that file but still it manages to close my computer when i turn it on, my anti virus deleted the trojan but i cant find the autorun, i have a external hardrive which i unplugged, now when i turn my pc on, it runs and then restarts over and over and its a bit annoying, is there anyway i can find how to delete the autorun so it stops restarting my pc, cheers.
