Hi guys! my second post!! (something which i shouldn't be excited about) ..lol

I protected myself with all the ways posted by the admins on this forums. But alas,the virus came from a newer way - Removable Drives.

When i clicked on my removable drive, something happened, and sxs.exe, autorun.inf files and Recycler folder appeared automatically (with hidden and system file attributes) in side my removable drive. There is an ie popup every 1hr or so linking to a chinese site which i cant understand - hxxp://www.dvdforone.com/ I tried deleting the files - sxs.exe and autorun.inf but they are recreated within 2-3 seconds.

I have run spybot, spywareguard in windows safe mode but of no avail. nothing detects and the problem persists.

Here is my hijackthis log

Hi.. sorry for the bad grammar in the earlier post. I have attached the files which appear in a zip file. Please be careful with the exe file as if run on ur computer. it will definitely infect it with same spyware which i have.

Please do not attach infected files!
If a helper requests files they will give you a link to upload them.
