If the folder reappears after full format, then the problem must be with the computer you are using the pen drive on. So run a antivirus check on the computer you are using

I think the best way to open you Pen drive with Linux live CD and remove all the files...from your drive..
Or...You open your pen drive in WinRar explorer..It will all the files..Hidden System..remove all those...your virus will be removed..without any anti virus...

Use a different computer to format and try it on this. If it is fine on other computer then ur PC is infected not the Pen Drive. Try to run virus scan with latest updated Antivirus.

it's not the name... the virus replicates to an application file with the same name as a folder created during it's existence. Creates an autorun.inf file in the usb... making the usb open the file everytime it starts. KAV doesn't detect it as av... avg detected, but couldn't delete as the virus is under use!
Yah.. seen that... b4

One tip...

never ever double click your pen drive to open it
dont even use autoplay to open it

Always right-click and open the pen drive ,or any CD(just in case.....)

it seems,
Quote:
the virus is not just in your pendrive, its migrated to your pc as well. update your virus scanner, then click on my computer>tools>folder options>view after going here click next to show hidden folders, and remove the tick out of hide extensions for known file types and hide protected operating system files. Then do a complete antivirus check of your system with the pendrive plugged into your system. I recommend you to use kaspersky antivirus, its very effective and fast.

Cool Re: How to remove latest.exe Virus from pen drive??

Hello Friends,

I knew that the all people really distrubed with PEN DRIVE virus which easily transfer in the pen drive/system. How to stop and delete before making changes in the system .

I can read many problems about that.

SOLUTION
Here the solution of all the query is AUTORUN EATER

Download the autorun eater

After installation
The start sound is great.It's really enjoying by you
The Scan Priority is High on the right click in the system tray icon.

Enjoy this software which is shield of the computer and the laptop.
It deny the virus which is automatically transfer in the system. Delete it.
For example: virus name snake.exe.vbs which directly going in the Windows directly. The dangerous viruses(exe) stopped only by this software.

SOLUTION 2

Noob Killer. Do a 8-X Kill and it will clear all the malware. You can also find the autorun file and delete it which is impossible by other antivirus programs.
