Hi friends, in today's tutorial you'll learn how to protect our computers against most exploited methods of infecting the computer. More precisely, it is the vulnerable function Auto Run (Windows XP) or Auto Play (as it was renamed in Windows Vista and 7) the existence of any Windows operating system.
We know very well that when inserted into a USB drive, External HDD or CD / DVD with games, movies, music and so on, are greeted by a window in which we are asked what we want to do with media or storage unit , intorodusa your computer.
Well, those who deal with the "black parts" in IT know very well about this vulnerability of Windows so they thought to exploit it to make it easier for them to spread and run malware.
As you well know, any media or storage drive contains a file called "autorun.inf" usually this file is hidden and can only be seen if we set Windows to see the hidden files. This file contains some data that tells Windows what to do when the media or storage unit is inserted in the PC and also thanks to this file Windows is able to offer us different options to launch an action. It is the first file that windows reads when we insert a media or storage drive and if it contains some actions or launch commands, the Windows operating system will launch them without asking any more "questions".
Statistics show that this method is most common in the spread, execution and computer virus so you need to take some precautions to prevent infection or spread.
Most security software today, even free ones, have the option to scan any storage device or media is inserted in the PC
Some examples of free security softwares that have this option are:
AVG
Avast
If you use a security software other than those listed above that do not have such surveillance on devices inserted in the PC, you can use to fill this gap Panda USB Vaccine, a small software that allows us to vaccinate the computer to prevent the execution of unwanted files on the computer. All this software also allows us to vaccinate the USB sticks inserted in the unit. Once a USB stick has been vaccinated, the "autorun.inf" file will be locked on any computer and you will not be able to return to the initial state of the "autorun.inf" file except by formatting the USB stick.
If a USB stick was vaccinated when you will enter in any single PC, you will not be welcomed by Auto Run and Auto Play window (depending on what operating system your PC has the insert stick) even If you entered the computer stick has Auto Run / Auto Play enabled
That said, and I found myself hoping that curiosity, I invite you to follow along video tutorial.

Hi Adrian,
Forgive me if my question has nothing to do with the tutorial, but I want to ask how can I connect two hard drives to a PC if I Douar black cable (the one that has 1,5cm)
Personally I think that this software is useless as long as you can go alone to uncheck that option.
Now at the beginning of the year I have a request and that is to do something with your The site loading exactly the same as hard as one of China.Bagati little hand in his pocket and invest less in the web as it's jalnic.Se Really struggling to poor Opera between the his Spirit, and of course, I know some settings to make him an even script.Acele settings made no change at all situatia.Acest goes on any browser and on any system so I do not want to hear laments that The site (which is also full of advertisements) does nothing.
We'll put our hand in your pocket, maybe? Have you ever donated at least 1 euro by clicking on the donations button on the site? You don't like it, you are free to go to other sites… there are a lot of children after videotutoria.ro!
FLOUR thema at ICON AND CAN DO A TUTORIAL ABOUT thema the icons.
Happy Birthday! with health and long life to you and those dragi.Multumim softuletului presentation.
Also for axelluny: As always you look for culprits and you have to throw the stone as otherwise… deh… you don't feel well…
I say be careful before we tell you what to do or what arguments to make, not the other but you've given marsh and knocked in another time
Take a look THIS video cam clip to see how wrong you are!
Better you put your hand in your pocket (expression borrowed from the news) and a net put your best, you need a site like videotutorial.ro net good.

All these are in a data center (not a Domitor).

Be patient that these tablets came out too recently, the developers were used to other resolutions, maximum 854 × 480 (motorola droid), until they regroup, and modify their applications takes a little longer.
Try on XDA-Developers, you may find answers there, if you can not find there, I think you'll find anywhere.
and do thou for axelluny fel.cine net you know what I tu.eu net mega 15 the UPC and load quickly saitul.nu net but it's super decent.am had 10 net and Site mega early videotutorial.si I had no problems probleme.daca net you noastra.dute not come on websites and see what kind assus slowly and do not do a comparatie.alta on charges of Venice nefondate.eu upload mozzila.si have no problem.
I managed not to themese little to solve anything ..
So to me Adrian, as Cristi will say like me-loading site all in 4-5 seconds with firefox, so netul talk that after him enter, the site has nothing, even if it's very much tera videos but he still goes smoothly 4 seconds. And I am on a net from RDS via router and flies above the buttons I've put videotutorial.ro and-click and open in 4-5 6 seconds max hai seconds longer there. It depends on net, and a net rds stick to open soon in let's say 6-9 seconds but still open :). Thank you Adrian Cristi and do a very good job with this site, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!
Good. C antivirus do you recommend for an old comp 1800 processor? Something besides Microsoft essential lite
http://screenshooter.net/0341846/nojxoty I hope this link will clarify my speed problem, which many will not work au.Daca not write (82,15MB / SDOWNLOAD AND 52,61MB / s upload) LA traffic OARA20.50 maxim.Cristi think that if I resolve those parameters insirasi thing Loading, Site? course not to say anything but the practice teoria.Adriane see that talking to other websites you should copy, I see that you forgot the hand to the mouth when I was putting links to places where "inspiring" to say no children, then you delete my comentariile.Lasati it easy to affronts that I know what I'm talking and it usually deranjeaza.In lately I have not joined this site just because it loads very slowly and so and not for the reasons alleged by you Adriane.
I think you are "poorly prepared", you do a download test and an upload test with a server (the best recommended server), the download is one, uploading a website is another.
I walk a detail you do not think that makes any sense.
You do not like us, do not come, it is simple.
If 6 guys tell them and confirm that everything is OK what do you want more than that? My advice to you is to make more informed, keep reading up on networking to study, response times, latent lag and then come to take us to battle, so far you have not proven than big mouth, you ignorant and you think someone must necessarily give you the best quality service to you just so you are axelluny.
Talks with you lead nowhere, to be in your place I would be ashamed to open my mouth or at least I would not have the courage to make a big mouth at those from whom I learned even if MAYBE I am right and that out of respect. You didn't answer… and you completely bypassed the donation phase even though I see that your pretensions… so?
Sal do not know what you understand or did you misunderstand me with AVG 2011 longer need to install Panda USB Vaccine May I ask because I put a usb I did not know my way to depstat antivirus virus and gave me not allowed to copy and Another solution was just to reformat
Look head-tail tutorial and read the text above tutorial
Sal Cristi I have a question especially as I have documented on this site and helped me a lot with some tutorials I have AVG 2011 longer need to install Panda USB Vaccine May I ask because I put a usb not know horse virus from my antivirus detected and not allowed to copy and gave me another solution was just to reformat
I rasponde to me anyone?
You can delete the "autorun.inf" file created by panda and without formatting:
write-
md H \ autorun.inf ”
type null> “\\? \ H \ autorun.inf \ lpt3.File created by Romeo Drobota”
attrib.exe + h + r + s + a “H \ autorun.inf”)
Delete
attrib -h -r -s -a “\\? \ H \ autorun.inf \ lpt3.File created by Romeo Drobota”
del / a / f / q "\ \? \ H \ autorun.inf \ lpt3.Fisier created by Romeo Drobota"
attrib-h-r-s, the "H \ autorun.inf"
RMDIR "%% g \ autorun.inf \"
Well you don't have to delete it, the idea was to unlock it to run autorun.inf and give you the option to execute the stick setup. Do you delete it and what do you solve? When you insert the stick you will only have the browser for file option instead of starting the setup of a windows 7 that you put on the stick for example. Ok, you delete it and you say you're doing something else… but what will you write in it, do you know what was written? 🙂 I repeat not to erase it was the idea but to restore it as it was.
aaaaaaa .........
and adjust the clock to the server as you lead people into error;
I for one am scared it's time 0: 18 and I have not slept!
And another "master" axelluny who comes and tells us that you have 82M (you will not have such a high speed in the life of your lives, I guarantee you) The speed that that site gives you you forgot to divide by 8 (I hope that your "enlightenment" knows why it has to do this… right?… you only know something about the pc… I think)
So you have:
10M Download
Upload 6,57M
I kind of doubt that you have such a speed, especially when uploading, let's be serious… have you heard of marketing?
There is a difference between MB and Mb… put your hand and read what is that byte and bit, what is the difference
Romeo I never said that we can not erase but we can no longer return to its original state autorun.inf file in both tutorial and in the text above it
Sal sorry but I only see one way boastful here I think we all have a flaw in computers here should help us I'm not in pc as I have to learn from that and I like the turorial this site really helped me tremendously in about Windows and the software and some sites about some downlod limit you can have and all the band to the limit 500Mb shoot a song with 128klb eg maximum 1mb come on admins really wants to help us learn from tutorials not we praise each other
I remain in my opinion: to leave the autorun function of windows alone and to immunize only the sticks, they are the main "carriers" of viruses, and the "immunization" should be done by "injecting" into their root the autorun file .inf of the form shown by me above.
The viruses "will" take it very badly because they have nothing to do with that lpt.xxx or com.xxx: they will write the virus script but the running inf will not (forever).
So we have a harmless virus that anyway stik any antivirus deletes it when you scan.
I also like to have an installation CD leave automatically, whatever it is, but it doesn't have to leave the stick and execute what it wants (or the external hard drive, or even the internal one - the operating system having another automatic boot startup path).
Sal I have a problem with a stick and can not whatsoever as to format.
I tried the software on the net but if all we did is a way please let me know ms.
All the respect for the videotutorial.ro team, you do a very useful job for us, you waste your time with malice. TuneUp Utilities 2009… 2010… 2011 can deactivate the 'Auto Play' function and other very useful functions. You have a presentation for TuneUp Utilities 2008 but I have the impression that it does not disable the 'Auto Play' function.
Hello

Hello. I need a program to modify a shooting mp4 (ie to cut a small morsel of filming). Thank you
I know this is not the right column, but please help me if possible, with some advice. Yesterday I entered a site with jokes, but since yesterday when I open my computer the Mozilla browser opens with the following address "http://rockhub.110mb.com/". I don't know what I can do to get rid of her! As an antivirus I use AVG Internet Security with license, but it does not find anything suspicious in the computer. Thank you!
Sorry, the operating system is Windows Enterprise 7 licensed. And please tell me what that thing is or virus. Thank you!
A tutorial idea, like can you be to put a radio station on a bar in mozilla just give him PLEY or when you stop, it was like internet exploration (one that you are listening, I I have music in winamp, 1000 of meldii about perhaps is less or more, it does not matter).
I prefer to put a password Rebate squeezer but not so, you can see what's in it, not only adds or delete, and dezactivz password when you walk and do stuff not to give as demon tool, not I want to be mischievous, your tutorials are great (Adrian, Cristi and Bobi, I will explain fruos and calm that is not talking fast, and there is someone else but now I know his name, nor of him I can not complain, tutorials I saw that I am very satisfied), do not think that I've got to get
hello! archives. iso can become infected? are less vulnerable? (I mean their content)
I read the "discussions" on the previous page…;)) I'm not even familiar with networking but for me it's like this:
net I 256 kb / sec. and videotutirial works perfectly!
if it's vb let's talk about youtube… things are a bit awful. often at 360p the playback speed is higher than the download speed so it goes interrupted and that's why I have to pause to load in advance…
with video tutorials there are no problems so… it's an EXCELLENT site (my point of view)
perhaps some visitors will access the Chinese and that's why they are slow loading. ;))
can anyone help me in creating a pps? tell me what steps should be taken. idea I realize coherence between image, melody and comment on each imagine.multumesc more
Last updated Microsoft Security fix this problem almost entirely. is about is about limiting KB971029 Autorun on Windows Vista / XP / 2003. This leads to specialized malware blocking this function (the most common versions). Autorun is responsible for running automated through autorun.inf files found on portable devices like USB drives, external HDDs, MP3 Players, cards, etc..
Microsoft fixed this issue by updating KB971029 in February this year, which limits the "AutoRun" feature on Windows Vista / XP / 2003. This blocks malware that specializes in this feature (the most common versions). The AutoRun function is responsible for automatically running files via autorun.inf on portable devices, such as USB sticks, external HDDs, MP3 Players, cards, etc.
