Hi,

I think i have a virus that hides files and creates shortcuts in USB flash.
When I add files it remain there and a shortcut appear, but when i get out and return only the shortcuts is available.
I was looking for a solution for the problem and found that i can use the command "attrib -s -h -a -r /s /d *.*" to see the files.
After i did that no more shortcuts created but files hide after few seconds from the command and pc is infected so the problem still stay there.
I have read a los of information but it didn´t solve the problem.
So I have Document ans Settings folder and a lot of folders with denied access
Could you help me?
Thanks in advance!
