Good Morning To All,

I don't know if some1 already posted like this, But I just want to ask if. When your using dos command or command prompt(Correct me if I'm wrong)..when opening files from a Flash Drive..If the Flash Drive has a Virus..Will the virus can still get inside your computer?..Coz unlike clicking it with a mouse and opening it directly, for sure the virus will get in you're computer..so "is dos command safe to use in opening a flash drive?"..

[MarkCuering]

clicking is just Interactive way to run a program, typing it via command promt is the same and virus may still spread...

and if it happens your OS enables autorun from the time you inserted your Flash disk (w/ virus) possible your computer may infected as well... (depends upon the virus duh).

Autorun won't trigger if you change into the drive using DOS. You might do something like this to remove the autorun.inf:

F:
attrib -s -h -r autorun.inf
del autorun.inf

Ofcourse that is assuming that you have disabled autorun upon plugin of removal devices...

Pero if a file is infected unya you open it using DOS, same ra mahitabo as what MarkCuering said.

You might also want to open the autorun.inf using notepad before deleting it by type:

notepad autorun.inf

kay usahay ma klaro raman kung unsa na files iyang i run, which is usually ang virus.


Ang uban sad kay naka set ang system attribute para dili makit-an bisag view all files sa Explorer not unless naka view system/protected/(limot ko sa term) files sad ka. You could also browse for files that have the system or hidden attribute set by:

dir /a:h (for hidden files)
dir /a:s (for system files)

Then doing attrib -s -h -r to those suspicious looking files. You might also want to google a filename first before deleting it.

After you're sure na dapat to i delete na file/folder, do:

del <filename>

for folders:

rmdir /S <folder name>

If daghan folder ang hidden/system then ang naa say executable na same name as the folder, usually it's NOT safe to delete katong folders kay naa toy virus na i hidden/system the user's folders then replace it with a copy of the virus pero with a folder icon.

Sorry, unorganized. Diritso ra kog type unsay ma sulod sa akong utok. I'm not liable for any damage done to your system/property by following the above instructions. ((:

There's another thread here that deals with deleting viruses from the flash drive without using an antivirus.
