Guys as you all know that most virus run from the file autorun.inf.. following are some tips to prevent most of them...
-- Go to run and type gpedit.msc there(you must be logged on as administrator for this)
--There under the computer configuration there is an option Administrative Templates.
-- In this you will find an option Turn Off Autoplay.
-- Double Click on that and set it to enabled and from the drop down select all drives.
-- Click on apply.
from now on no drive of yours' will autoplay.
All you have to do is to right click on the drive and select on open.
If on right clicking you find more options like Autoplay,??00 sort of things..
go to Tool->Folder Options->view-> Click on show hidden files and folders,also click on show hidden operating system files and click on apply..
Delete all the unwanted files now.
This is the simple and safe technique.
Apart from this you can explore the gpedit.msc thing for knowing more stuffs for enhancing your pc's performance and also its outlook.
And one more tip..
Never run your computer in adminstrator login al the time. Use admin login only when u want to install something, else always use the restricted login. By doing this u hardly stand a chance to be heranified by any virus. and never put in a pen drive inserted at some other place directly to your pc when in admin login. Clean it from the restricted login and then use it. Belive me you will hardly need any anti virus if you follow this simple things.
