where do you see these files, mostly in your hard drives & pen drive. You are annoyed with this because you think these are virus. But actually these are not virus but important component of windows OS. And now you can see them because they have been infected. They have been infected because it's most prime motive virus made around whole world.
Let me give you little introduction of autorun.inf (source: Wikipedia)
An autorun.inf file is a text file that can be used by the AutoRun and AutoPlay components of Microsoft Windows Operating systems.For the file to be discovered and used by these components, it must be located in the root directory of a volume. As Windows has a case-insensitive view of filenames, the autorun.inf file can be stored as AutoRun.inf or Autorun.INF or any other case combination.
Autorun.inf file is used in Flash drive and CD. AutoRun enabled application CD-ROMs to automatically launch a program which could then guide the user through the installation process. By placing settings in an autorun.inf file, manufacturers could decide what actions were taken when their CD-ROM was inserted. The simplest autorun.inf files have just two settings: one specifying an icon to represent the CD in Windows Explorer (or "My Computer") and one specifying which application to run.
1. Go to Start button.
2. In the Run type CMD. Hit enter. This will launch new command shell window
3. There type C:. Hit enter. This will take you to C: drive.
4. Type autorun.inf. Hit enter. This will open new notepad, where you will see actual autorun.inf file. Close it.
5. Now type del autorun.inf. This will show message "could not find autorun.inf". This doesn't means autorun.inf. It's still there !!!
6. Now type "attrib autorun.inf -s -h -r" and hit enter.
7. Now type del autorun.inf and hit enter.
8. Type autorun.inf and hit enter and this time you will not see any infected notepad.
Hurrah !!! you cured your problem.
You can do same with every drive just by going and typing the drive letter e.g D:\ , E:\ etc.
