Looking at the new variant of Windows 7 users U disk virus

  

Viruses, Trojans are increasingly causing headaches for users, especially for U disk viruses. Even if you are using a Windows 7 system with a lot of security improvements, you can't completely block the U disk virus attack. After all, Windows 7 is not an anti-virus expert. It is understood that Kingsoft Internet Security Center issued a warning today that Microsoft's latest computer operating system Windows7 has found a new variant of the virus against WIN7 system, the majority of users need to be vigilant.

Kingsoft Internet Security expert Li Tiejun said that the most influential U disk virus "folder imitators" series, there appeared a new variant of the WIN7 system last weekend. “The folder imitator” is a new variant that, in addition to the usual kill-free processing, also uses the icon style of the WIN7 system for the folder icon that it disguise.

According to security experts, "folder imitators" new variants are essentially advertising Trojans. It hides the real files in the USB flash drive and replaces the folder icons in the USB flash drive as their own icons, enticing the user to click the Trojan icon every time they view the file to activate the Trojan. Once run, the “folder imitator” will pop up an IE window pointing to some websites, and then allow the user to enter the folder.

“Folder imitators" The use of the WIN7 icon confirms the attempt of the virus author to chase the user. When more and more users start to try the WIN7 system, the virus author also transfers the battlefield to this platform. Kingsoft Internet Security experts remind Win7 users to install a powerful security software to kill all kinds of Trojan viruses.

Experts also said that because the virus destroyed the system-related data when hiding the real folder, the user could not find the previous file after the anti-virus software was killed. Just download and run the free software provided by Kingsoft Security Lab. The tool “First Aid Kit” will return to normal.

This is basically safe. However, some people may find that we have been defying the virus to prevent the virus, so how to cure it?
