"I Dont hate Mozilla but use IE or Else" Virus

Or "USE INTERNET EXPLORER U DOPE" virus. Know what? Just got affected by it.

Want to know how? A consequence of using an infected USB. This virus is spreading through USB drives.

As Kalai points out:

"Its a safe practice to press and hold the Shift button before inserting any usb drives to avoid the autorun feature from being activated. For newbies, hold the shift button until any LED lights on the usb drive stops flashing. Then open My Computer and right click your drive which should be the last alphabet anyway. Use the open menu and check for any auto.inf files (it might be hidden)and delete it. Mind you, these files if any, have no business in the USB drive in the first place!"

Ok, thats all about prevention which is better than cure. Now that if you are affected, never mind - you can get rid of this "amateur" virus within next 2 minutes:

Thanks a lot to "learns" at Mozillazine forums. His/her solution worked for me.

Download this app from this page
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/ProcessExplorer.mspx

direct link: http://download.sysinternals.com/Files/ProcessExplorer.zip

extract it to drive and run it .

goto view->select columns , (select) image path, click ok .

In the column named "path" look for heaps64 or heaps41 or heaps .

note down the path , open the path in explorer.

now kill the process by right clicking -> kill process.

delete the heaps folder.

if you are not able to delete.

download this http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/unlocker1.8.5.exe

install it .

now right click on the target folder (heaps*** )-> unlock -> delete

Update:
If you can't see a folder starting with "heap" or "heaps" or "heap41a" or "heaps64", never mind... just try open your MyComputer in "Explore" mode and type "C:/heap41a" or "C:/heaps64" and it is very likely that the folder will be listed in the Explorer pane on left. Just delete the folder and your PC is clean now.
