Autoruns file cleaner.

For Win XP and 2k Only

First, run Hijackthis.
Fix  the entry in the userinit line if present. 
Fix any other pertinent entries.

Create a new folder And extract the files in the Clean autoruns.zip into it. 

Be sure you have your Flash drive plugged in so we can see the files it contains and clean those up. 

Run Clean autoruns.bat
If any autoruns are found, it will move them to a backup folder.

If any autoruns are found on the root of your drives, it will kill explorer so that the registry entries in the MountPoints(2) key are fixed.

Part1.txt will be created. It will show the pre-cleaning state.

Part2.txt will be created. It will show the post cleaning state. 

 Post the contents of Part1.txt and then Part2.txt in your reply on the forums. 


** It is important that you follow these directions exactly.

  Any autorun files found in the root of your drives, or the Windows, or System32 directories will be  deleted. Backups of these files will be created in a folder named as the date and time  the last file was deleted. 

 This batch will not remove any related files or other registry entries.

 This batch only deals with autorun.* files and the MountPoints(2) registry keys.

 Any other files mentioned in either the autorun.inf or  MountPoints keys will need to be found and deleted if they still exist.  This will require skilled guidance from a qualified Secuity Expert. Deleting files is not recommended without proper supervision.  





If your part1 or part2 shows that a folder named autorun.inf exists, don't be concerned. When that folder is there, it prevents the autorun.inf file from being created. It is an  inoculation. The autorun.inf file is the infector, the autorun.inf folder is not.
