So the Autorun.inf is what infects the other computer? or does the virus configure the Autorun? If autorun is disabled on a computer is it safe or Im I at risk? Also is there a way to get rid of the Autorun without wrecking the Flash-Drive?

If the Flash-Drive's Autorun is "infected" do I have to format my flash drive?

I will be formating the Computer soon and I just realized that I dont know how to format a computer. Also is there some thing that will happen to the computer's hardware if I format it?
