This is a very simple free program to remove Win32/Autorun which appears to plague many users. It appears that some antivirus scans do find the problem but fail to remove it.

This program does just that. It scans your drives and CleanAutoRun will detect and remove any W32/Autorun Worm and its variants safely from your system.

Simply download the program and save it on your desktop or in a folder that you may have for downloaded programs. Double click on CleanAutoRun.exe to run the program.

Click on Scan and just let it run, go and grab a coffee while it scans, it may take a little while depending on how full your drive is, how many partitions it has and any external drives that may be connected.

When the scan is complete it will show you the results of ALL infected Autorun.inf worms that have been deleted.

User interaction is minimal, simply, download, double click to Run, select Scan and that’s all there is to it. By removing all Autorun .inf files your computer will be safer as will your data.

A useful tip to stop usb devices from automatically running when you insert them is to hold down the ‘Shift’ key as you insert the plug into the usb port.
