Hello to the forum.

I don't know about you,but I've been dealing with USB infections for a while now."Clean" systems just start going awry,infecting other PC's and my network(A topic for another area,I'm sure)

I'm been using BitDefender USB Immunizer to protect USB drives......

It disables the Autorun feature on it.But sometimes,it works....and sometimes,it doesn't.

I want a more robust tool for the PC.I found MCShield and it looks promising....

Do you know of any scanners that activates as soon the USB drive gets connected? I swear I saw one years back....but don't remember the name.

McShield is one of the example where once the USB drive connected it will scan immediately. (The longer the scan there's a chances of autorun detection)

USB Disk Security is another alternative tool which function also the same process, gets quickly detected any autorun viruses when USB plug in. :)
