Autorun Virus

i have an autorun virus on my system and when ever i copy any file to my flash drive it goes inside with it (Note i use avast antivirus and update daily), when i use this flash on my friends system his own antivirus software (karpersky) detects it immediately and removes this from the flash drive. When i bring it back into my system it contacts the autorun virus again.

My question is: Is it that avast antivirus cannot remove the autorun virus or is there something i am not doing right.

thanks

You could try an on line scan at kapersky. If it finds anythin, it won’t fix it, but will give you a report. From this you could submit the file(s) to www.virustotal.com and see if any other avs are detecting it. If so you can forward it to virus@ avast.com(without the space) in a password protected zipped email for further analisis.

What is kapersky detecting it as?

Maybe avast can even detect it…
Run Kaspersky on-line like oldman suggested or
ESET NOD32
Trendmicro housecall
AVGas (does not necessary if you have AVG antispyware installed)
F-Secure
BitDefender (free removal of the malware)
HitmanPro (new online scanner with multiply scanners)

the actual virus name is RavMonE.exe and it also has an autorun file.

what it does to my flash drive that i dont like are:

  1. when i double click on my d: drive it opens it in a new window in the explorer view.
  2. When i right click on the drive it shows auto first instead of open which is default

First you don’t appear to have an active firewall or XP which is only half a firewall without a firewall that provides protection against unauthorised outbound Internet Connections you will have difficulty getting clean and staying that way.

You have a highly infested system.

This would appear to be the real culprit here, the rjump worm, http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_139985.htm.

Let’s put a copy of ravmone.exe in the avast! chest and upload it so it can be added to the detections.

Right click the a-icon in your system tray and click Start avast! antivirus. When the interface opens click the chest icon, then click User Files. In the tool bar click File>Add and navigate to

C:\WINDOWS\RavMonE.exe

Click Open, then close the confirmation window. Now highlight the file and click File>Email to Alwil Software. Add comments if you wish, then click Send Mail. Close the chest and the avast interface.

There are quite a few trojans running on your computer and we can clean many of them now. But I would still like you to run ComboFix as this may root out a few more and will show us some registry entries that cause the infection to jump between you computer and your flash drive.

First download OTMoveIt by OldTimer and save it to your desktop.

Now open HJT and click to Do a System Scan Only. When the scan is complete place a check mark next to these lines being carefull to check all the duplicates:
