Its primary function is nothing more than to ensure average user has no difficulty to install a program when a CD is loaded onto a CD ROM. Even though this is handy, it is easily exploited by malicious malware to load themselves into our PCs and do unauthorized series of action.

Note: Manual removal of folder viruses may be difficult, as the removal process requires knowledge of the operating system command prompt. If not performed properly, your system and data in USB flash might experience permanent damage. we highly recommend you use a good virus remover to automatically detect and remove the new folder.exe virus.

Search for autorun.inf, svichossst.exe, new_folder.exe, regsvr.exe files on USB drive and system, and then delete them.

Remove the following keys from registry

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System] “@”=

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] “Yahoo Messenger”=

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] “Shell”=”regsvr.exe “

This virus creates an exe file in your usb drive with the name New Folder.exe. Here are some symptoms of this virus.

Task manager is disabled.
Registry Editor is disabled.
Folder options not working.
Taking too much time for accessing pendrive.
Uses half of your computers processing power.

Whenever you plug a USB drive in your system, a window will appear similar to the one shown below

Don’t click on Ok , just choose ‘Cancel’. Open the Command Prompt by typing ‘cmd‘ in the run box. In the command prompt type the drive letter: and press enter . Now type dir /w/a and press enter.

This will display a list of the files in the pen drive. Check whether the following files are there or not

Autorun.inf
Ravmon.exe
New Folder.exe
svchost.exe
Heap41a
or any other exe file which may be suspicious.

If any of the above files are there, then probably the USB drive is infected. In command prompt type attrib -r -a -s -h *.* and press enter. This will remove the Read Only, Archive, System and hidden file attribute from all the files. Now just delete the files using the command del filename. example del Ravmon.exe. Delete all the files that are suspicious. To be on a safer side, just scan the USB drive with an anti virus program to check whether it is free of virus or not. Now remove the drive and plug it again. In most of the cases, the real culprit turns out to be the “Autorun.inf” file which mostly gets executed when someone clicks Ok in the dialog window which appears above. Thus the infections can spread

For you who used mozilla firefox, mozilla thunderbird, Mozilla Sunbird, Flock, SeaMonkey, Mozilla Suite, Spicebird, Songbird, and netscape, now you can backup your profile setting from those softwares, so that when you re-install your computer, or so on, you can restore all your profile setting software.

With MozBackup, you can backup mozilla firefox, mozilla thunderbird, and other softwares profile setting easily. For you who has interest to download and install MozBackup, please follow this guidance:

visit this site to download MozBackup:

Using this freeware you can easily backup your browser data, bookmarks, cookies and  many other things with only few clicks of your mouse and all from a single window. Which makes your task much more easier.

This app allows you to backup your Firefox in easiest way. This app is available for Windows operating systems only. Profile setting you can backup by MozBackup such as bookmarks, mail, contacts, passwords, extensions, cache, history etc.

Manual Backup

Backing up Firefox and Thunderbird manually is as simple as copying their respective profile folders to another location. If you do that, you’ll have a full backup with all your setting and personal data saved.

An advantage of manual backup is that you don’t need to have Firefox or Thunderbird functioning in order to restore your backup; it’s just a case of copying the backup profiles. That’s a good thing because the most common reason you want to restore is that your Firefox or Thunderbird installation is not working!

The hardest part is finding the profile folders. First up, they are not located where you would expect to find them. Secondly, they are located in different places for different versions of Windows. Thirdly, they may be assigned random file names that make them difficult to recognize.

On Windows 2000/XP machines the locations for your Firefox and Thunderbird profiles are respectively:

C:\Documents and Settings\<Windows login/user name>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<Profile name>\
C:\Documents and Settings\<Windows login/user name>\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\<Profile name>\

On Windows 9x/Me PCs they can usually be found at:

C:\Windows\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<Profile name>\
C:\Windows\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\<Profile name>\

If you can’t locate your profiles then check out this document for more information: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Folder#What_is_in_my_profile?
