About Lorry
Expertise
I can answer most questions regarding viruses/Trojans and help to remove them.

Experience
This happens to be of interest to me as it boggles my mind that people have nothing better to do than to write a virus. Wish these people, the ones who write viruses would put the knowledge to good use instead. My job as a local tech involves removing viruses and/or spyware.

Computer Security & Viruses - USB viruses


Expert: Lorry - 6/10/2009

Question
Hi Lorry,

I have been dealing with the USB viruses found on my thumb drives and I can't seem to get rid  of it! Can you recommend any free and utilizable software that I can download from the internet?

Millions of thanks.

Regards,
Ryan.

Answer
Hi Ryan,

If you have an anti-virus program  installed, update it, then run a scan. If you don't have one installed at this time, check out the following for information:

Once it is removed, install an AV program, keep it up to date and run a virus scan once a week.

Hope this helps!
Lorry
