Brontok Virus, Public Library and my flash drive

Yes, a story of trio- viruses intricate into my drive from public library- is this what you want to feature out? Might be you’re what you are.

Of the total 1424 files, guesstimate? 57 detected and 17 untreated guest viruses are keeping eyes open over my system- has this to do anything with my crazy writing on this ekendraonline blog, who cares? To name few of my friendly viruses-

·         virus IM-Worm.Win32.Sohanad.t

·         virus Email-Worm.Win32.Brontok.q

·         malware Nuker.Win32.Small.b

·         riskware not-a-virus:PSWTool.Win32.NetPass.b

·         Trojan program Backdoor.Win32.Skrat.e

·         malware HackTool.Win32.VB.ao

·         Trojan program Trojan-PSW.Win32.Sagic.15.d

·         virus Packed.Win32.PolyCrypt.b

Oops! Since I am a poor at remembering passwords, my secret program is also detected as threat, see above, of course this was totally undesired. For an example ASA so called Brontok virus attacks a NewFolder.exe file is created and replicated inside each folder with the extension of .exe to their name. As here New Folder.exe//PE_Patch.UPX//UPX//script.au3 and another File: H:\processed\##.exe//PE_Patch//MewBundle//MEW and yet another //PE_Patch.UPX//UPX.

No wonder all of these were cleaned later by Kaspersky antivirus- you know how I am going to make up my removable drives with- a read only hidden Autorun.exe, ntde1ect.com, autorun.inf, SSVICHOSST.exe and autorun.vbs files. Just creating with those names and extension files from notepad- most probably with my name inside the originally a notepad file.
