Re: security prob??

how sure are you that your comp is malware free? If unsure use tools listed »Security Cleanup FAQ »Mandatory Steps Before Requesting Assistance

Otherwise, could you post a screen shot ?

Re: security prob??

the problem exists in a computer of a freind of mine..

that comp has ran adaware and spybot... but problem still persists

i formatted it a while back and the autoplay still came back... havnt had any ideas about it until now when i decided to post in forum...

the autoplay pops up and runs and then goes away ... it comes and goes a lot..

thats the best explaination i could give...

after reading bunch of sites.. i am assuming it could have came from a usb drive??

Re: security prob??

I used A2 squared software to detect any malware but no luck. It didn't find anything.

What brand of computer is involved?

If it is an HP computer it is found here:
C:hp\bin\ folder as AUTOPLAY.exe

When searching for the file be sure you have the settings checked to search all files and folders as well as hidden files and folders.
