Need Online Pendrive virus scan for free

Jahana Sheriff · 10-22-2009, 12:29 AM

Hi Guys!
Does any of you people know how I could cleanse my flash drive of virus online for free.
Do I have to download a virus guard or can I just get it scanned and cleansed of the dirty spyware/malware thing ?
Pls. let me know the steps.
Thank you,
Have a nice day.

Hi and welcome.

You should follow these instructions

Please download Flash Disinfector and save it to your desktop.

Double-click Flash_Disinfector.exe to run it and follow any prompts that may appear.
The utility may ask you to insert your flash drive and/or other removable drives including your mobile phone. Please do so and allow the utility to clean those drives as well.
Wait until it has finished scanning and then exit the program.
Reboot your computer when done.

Note: Flash_Disinfector will create a hidden folder named autorun.inf in each partition and every USB drive plugged in when you ran the tool. Do not delete this folder. It will help protect your drives from future infection.
