Removing mma.vbs, mma.rar, mma.* and autorun.inf in your unit and flash drive

mma.* is a virus with aliases Virus.VBS.AutoRun.b, and VBS_MMADROP.A that spreads through removable storage devices and network sharing. It installs itself in the registry basically found in "userinit".

How to remove:
Open FOLDER OPTIONS, Show hidden files and uncheck Hide extensions for known file types and Hide protected operating system files.. a warning will pop-up just click YES.
then
>> from START-> RUN->CMD type cd\ hit ENTER key
>> type -r -a -s -h "C:/mma.*" hit ENTER key
>> type -r -a -s -h "C:/autorun*" hit ENTER key [this command will let the files show]
>> type del /f "mma.*"
>> type del /f "autorun.inf"

>> type -r -a -s -h "C:/WINDOWS/system32/mma.*" hit ENTER key
>> type -r -a -s -h "C:/WINDOWS/system32/autorun.inf" hit ENTER key
>> type del /f "mma.*"
>> type del /f "autorun.inf"

just repeat the commands for other drives and flash drive.

then in START->RUN->type regedit then locate HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\
Winlogon\Userinit\ and delete mma.bat...

try this command and your unit will be virus free. good luck!
