Can't open any drive with double click(autorun.inf)

I had this problem too, then I made a new topic here .

go to command prompt and write this command

c:\> attrib -r -s -h autorun.inf
c:\> del autorun.inf
d:\> attrib -r -s -h autorun.inf
d:\> del autorun.inf
restart the pc

And follow the steps:-

1Open Start >> Run and type regsvr32 /i shell32.dll
2. press ok
3. You will see a message DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in shell32.dll succeeded

That make's your problem resolved...!

How to Fix Double Click Always Opens Search in Windows Explorer

If you mess around in the registry, or install some different software packages that add things to the right-click menu, you can end up with a problem where the default action on a folder is always "Search…", even though you set it to something else.

There's a quick and easy fix for this problem. Open up regedit.exe by using Start\Run and then browse down to this registry key:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell

Double-click on the default value and set it to "none" without the quotes, as seen here:

This will restore the normal behavior.

Update

If you are also experiencing this problem when you try to click on a drive, you can run this command from the run box or command prompt:

regsvr32 /i shell32.dll

This should restore the normal behavior.

If you are getting a message that says "Windows cannot find 'PET32.exe'", then at some point you had a virus, or still have a virus. First, make sure that you run a virus scanner to get rid of the virus. Then run the regsvr32 command above, which should fix the problem.

Display flash (swf) as background in html

If we have flash embedded in a html page. Usually, it will be placed on top of other div or other components. There is a way to display other thing on top of flash, that is by adding the parameter: wmode with value opaque. Example:

< name="wmode" value="opaque">


Or, there's a good library for embedding flash object to html by using SWFObject. It is located in here.

Problem of "jwgkvsq.vmx" Has Been Resolved

(PROBLEM)

Now a days this is a very popular problem that when every time you delete "jwgkvsq.vmx" from your removable drive from the following location -------
".\RECYCLER\S-5-3-42-2819952290-8240758988-879315005-3665\jwgkvsq.vmx" then every time it recreates. But when you scan your system with antivirus then no-one can not detect this.

(SYMPTOMS)

You can not see your hidden files in your computer. You can not open some websites like microsoft.com, spywareterminator.com etc.

(SOLUTION)

To clean up system which automatically creates autorun.inf and RECYCLER folder with jwgkvsq.vmx, download and run this program. After reboot, the system probably will complain about missing dll file. To fix it manually, you can use regedit or msconfig:

Regedit:
(1) run regedit.exe (start menu, run: regedit.exe),
(2) search the dll file name (CTRL+F)
(3) delete the entry which contains the missing dll file. Usually, the entry should be found on registry location: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\

Or MsConfig:
(1) run msconfig.exe (start menu, run: msconfig.exe),
(2) go to startup tab
(3) Uncheck the Startup Item which contains missing dll file on the command.

To clean up the infected flash disk or external disk with FAT file system, simply delete the autorun.inf and RECYCLER folder. But if it has NTFS file system, windows will complain about having unauthorized access to the file and folder. You can use Linux and mount the NTFS volume (probably it must be mounted forcefully with options -o force), then delete them. Live CD such as Ubuntu will do.

That's all :)

Updated:
If the above cleaning process didn't work (somehow, the above process works perfectly on my PC but has no effect on my friend's), scan the system using this tool. After scanning, there are probably some unaccessible files (check the log file). then:
(1) find suspicious hidden dll file on \windows\system32\,
(2) boot to save mode
(3) change the ownership of the file (right click, properties, security, click advanced.. the rest I expect you know how.. ;) ), then
(4) change the access permissions for everyone,
(5) delete the dll file manually.
Perhaps, step (3) to (5) can be applied to remove the autorun.inf and RECYCLER folder too..

That's all :)

Updated #2:
For those who have trouble downloading from antivirus website, I add mirrors for the antivirus:
(1) http://happyfunz.net/antivirus/FixDownadup.zip (MD5 sum: 2363a7fce1919a42095b018f7b49b1aa)
(2) http://happyfunz.net/antivirus/anti-Downadup-EN.zip (MD5 sum: 053c297c3bdb1f86f141176db3d1b42c)

PS. Turn off System Restore and unplug your network before executing the removal tool. Otherwise, the virus might not be cleaned up. And refer to microsoft bulletin here to update the vulnerable patch.

If none of the above methods works for you, perhaps you should try to follow the cleaning process from microsoft knowledge base here.


(Result)


I have succesfully deleted this virus.......after removing the above virus ,,scan with latest kaspersky internet security2009...it will remove the virus called "kido" unless you follow the above procedure....if not it will come again & again even though you remove it...!
