From Old McDonald's Farm:
Autorun Eater was born due to the increase of malwares using the 'autorun.inf' method to infect users unknowingly be it from flash drives, external hard disks or any other removable storage device.
When a device is infected with a malware and an 'autorun.inf' file is dropped, the shell menu is normally modified to execute the malware whenever the unsuspecting user accesses the infected drive.
Autorun Eater will warn you and remove any suspicious 'autorun.inf' files(based on user decision/settings) so that the malware is not executed while accessing the infected drive. There are also certain cases whereby the malware has been removed by an antivirus but the 'autorun.inf' file remains. This will cause the drive to be inaccessible through the conventional method(double-click). Autorun Eater will also remove it if necessary so that you can access the drive as usual.
What's new in this version: Version 2.5 added: 'Remove Ignore For All' option to stop
ignoring all previously ignored suspicious 'autorun.inf' files; 'Undo Ignored Drive' option to stop ignoring a previously ignored drive; Option to enable or disable the splash image; 'Ignore Drive' option in the detection window; Drive letter for 'Suspicious File 1/2â?² in the detection window; Name of Autorun Backup file in the results log. Removed: '(Pause)' word in the tray menu to avoid confusion that Autorun Eater is paused when it... see all new features
